hen Brian Floriani’s cat died, the 5-year-old boy was confused. The unexpected loss of Whicker didn’t make sense to his young mind. His father, Bernie, read a book to him and his two siblings. Called “The Tenth Good Thing About Barney,” it talked about the death of a cat — and helped Brian gain understanding. “It was a beautiful book. I remember it like it was yesterday,” Brian says. Years later, in 2005, he read an excerpt out loud at the funeral of his father — whose surprise death jolted Brian, then 31 and a working as a golf pro. “I thought, ‘What am I doing here? What’s my purpose?’ “ Brian recalls. He found out. Today, he honors his father — who grew up in Western Pennsylvania without running water but with books — through Bernie’s Book Bank. In five years, the non-profit has distributed more than 3 million quality books to about 95,000 children from Zion to the South Side of Chicago and other poverty-lashed areas. “These children come to school in kindergarten so optimistic, but they barely have a chance if they’re not reading-ready,” Brian notes. “The only card they have to play is education, and that’s built on being a voracious reader.” After figuring out that the supply of books far outweighs the demand, Brian knew if he could provide a sensible business and logistics process, the problem could be solved cheaply. At the moment, it costs Bernie’s just 40 cents to collect, process and distribute each book into a lower-income child’s hands. Aside from books, thousands of thank-you notes have

MODEL BEHAVIOR

Nemcova revved up to help North Shore charitable event Petra Nemcova PHOTOGRAPHY BY FERNANDO SANCHO

■ by bill mclean Almost 10 years after suffering a broken pelvis and surviving a devastating tsunami near a resort in Thailand by clinging to the top of a palm tree for eight hours, supermodel Petra Nemcova sits in an airport in New York before a recent flight to London. Her voice during a phone interview exudes excitement as she discusses the Happy Hearts Fund organization she created in the wake of the 2004 natural disaster that killed more than 230,000 people — including her fiancé Simon Atlee. “Each day people get to choose to be positive or negative,” says Nemcova, who was born in what is now the Czech Republic and has lived in Haiti for the past 22 months. “I always choose to be positive.” Her nonprofit Happy Hearts Fund rebuilds schools in regions struck by natural disasters. It is a particularly beneficial cause for a community after emergency responders complete their high-priority tasks following a tragedy and global attention fades. Delays in reconstruction efforts usually ensue, keeping children at home for months during school hours. That’s when Happy Hearts Fund steps in — and closes the crucial time gap between the departure of the first responders and the resumption of rebuilding classrooms. Thus far Happy Hearts Fund has provided vital capital for the construction of 92 schools all over the world. “I’ve been very blessed to be able to travel and connect with so many people in so many countries,” Nemcova says. “I’ve seen people who have suffered terrible losses, but I’m inspired

when I see those same people smile and share their love.” Nemcova has never seen people from the North Shore beam in a North Shore setting. But that will change on Nov. 8, when she plans to attend a charity event held at Lake Forest Sportscars in Lake Bluff: “DALLAS: Stetsons, Stilettos and Sportscars.” The gathering — also featuring former Chicago Bears Richard Dent and Alex Brown, a casino, live music, an open bar, fare from six restaurants, a live and a silent auction — is sponsored by Heal Team 6, a nonprofit organization founded in 2012 by Green Oaks resident Steven Esposito. Heal Team 6 helps local charitable organizations generate resources and establish business connections. This weekend’s DALLAS gala intends to round up Texassized funds for the Association of Horizon, an all-volunteer organization that provides recreational activities for adults with physical disabilities. Its annual budget is only $80,000, and it runs a weeklong annual summer camp in downstate Illinois for adults with cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis. “I went down there with Terry (Rozdolsky, an original Association of Horizon volunteer and a Lake Forest resident) last summer to see what goes on during the camp,” says Esposito, senior vice president and portfolio management director of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management in Lake Forest. “I was amazed. I was in tears,” he adds. “It was incredibly heartwarming, seeing the campers enjoy a variety of activities with generous volunteers. But you know what else is so great about the camp [in Hudson, near Lake Bloomington]?

The caregivers of the campers with disabilities are usually their parents, and that week is often the only week in the year when the parents get a well-deserved break. It’s wonderful what the Association of Horizon does each year.” Esposito met Nemcova in the green room of the ABC News studio in New York before appearing on a financial advice segment a couple of months ago. His wife, Melissa, is a big Petra Nemcova fan, so Steven called his wife and handed his phone to his new friend, who performed on season 12 of “Dancing with the Stars” in 2011 and was named ambassador-at-large for Haiti because of her extensive commitments to charities in 2012.

“I always choose to be positive.” | Petra Nemcova “They talked for about 15 minutes,” Steven recalls. “Petra is such a sweet, loving, giving person … beautiful on the outside and inside. We’re excited she’ll be at the event this weekend, and we’re grateful the Mancuso family donated the use of facility to us. “Petra,” he adds, “is going to fly in the day before the event and then fly to Peru the day after it.” To purchase tickets and learn more about this weekend’s charitable event that runs from 6 p.m.-11:30 p.m. at Lake Forest Sportscars in Lake Bluff, visit www.healteam6.org. Tickets must be purchased in advance.■

Firm works to conserve irreplaceable paintings and other treasures

Heather Becker photography

by joel lerner

by s.h. sweet On a wall outside CEO Heather Becker’s office is a framed ruin of a painting that was destroyed by fire. The charred remains serve as a reminder that The Conservation Center cannot help everyone who seeks it out to conserve their paintings. Although the flow of new pieces for The Center has been exciting for Becker, occasionally she has to say no to a client. “There are times when you have to let things go and just walk away when the integrity of the piece is no longer intact,” she says. Those “nos” happen rarely for the 31-yearold Chicago organization, which can securely manage as many as 5,000 works of art at one time. The Conservation Center is the only forprofit firm in the country whose services comprise all the disciplines of conservatorship. Aside from paintings, the kinds of pieces that can be conserved include photographs, works on paper, frames and gilding, fine furniture, murals, rare books, objects, and textiles. More recently, The Center began to offer custom framing of works it preserves. “We have a large team – now 30 people – which is unusual for our industry. For many years, it has been an individual doing his or her work alone,” Becker says. “We wanted to be able to treat an entire collection for a museum, a corporation, or a private collector.” Now ensconced in several stories of a brick building in the trendy West Town area of Chicago, The Conservation Center is delighted with its new home. Knowing more space was needed and deciding to analyze

workflow to pinpoint leaner ways to process the treasures entrusted to it, Becker hired Jeanne Gang as a design partner for the work areas known as laboratories. Gang and her team interviewed all members of the staff in a “creative collaboration” that identified how workflow could be more efficient and effective. The laboratories include large square tables that dot the open, well-lit areas so conservators can sit or stand and move around easily. They can also engage each other readily. “There is a lot of shifting that goes on as a conservator works on projects, since after you begin work on one thing, it may have to be set aside to dry,” Becker says. “Looking through a microscope or using a fine hair brush or carving with hand tools can be very fatiguing, so everyone has to be aware of the body mechanics that are part of the work process. “Many of the crafts that the conservators use on a regular basis go back hundreds of years and have to be woven into the sometimes more innovative technological side of what they do. Only once you have treated hundreds of pieces do you develop the confidence to work on something priceless or irreplaceable without fear. It can be daunting to have a masterpiece in front of you, but the seasoned conservator will know when to step back or test further before embarking on the repair.” A large wooden frame has been damaged and pieces of the intricately carved frame need to be replaced. Could technology like 3-D modeling on a computer or 3-D printing aid the conservator as he duplicated the missing pieces? “This would not work for us,“ Becker explains. “The artisan’s skill was so integral

to the original piece that The Conservation Center would always honor that hand of the artist. Our modern-day artisans have to be able to mimic that hand talent. It looks more natural when it is handmade instead of machine-made.” Many people could make a work look better, but the process is what differentiates a conservator from a restorer. Becker explains that “a conservator uses the least invasive and most reversible process, so that what he does could be reversed again 5 or 50 or 500 years from now. You could always get back to the original bones of the object. A restorer uses whatever means to beautify the piece but might permanently change the piece.” The founder, Barry Bauman, began the business at the behest of Marshall Field V of Lake Forest, who is still involved on the advisory board. “Marshall has been a wonderful support for me and this organization,” says Becker, who purchased the company in 2003. Some pieces come to The Center because of natural disasters. Hurricane Sandy almost destroyed a large paper work that has taken almost a year to revive. The “before” picture shows the soggy paper work as it arrived. The newly conserved work that had just been framed was ready to be sent back to its owner looking stunning and new. Restoring the murals at the Lake Forest Library and the Merchandise Mart has gained The Center positive publicity. A rapidly moving toddler with a crayon or a careless cocktail party guest with red wine could easily damage an expensive work unintentionally, and no one is more familiar with the effects of the unexpected than Ralph Senst of Winnetka. When he was out of town once, a toilet broke on the second

floor of his home, flooding the first floor and basement and ruining plaster walls. The first significant, large oil painting he had acquired hung in a gilded frame in the family’s dining room — and he feared it had been ruined by the flood. “It was a fixture for our family” Senst says. “The Conservation Center was amazing. They picked up the piece and completely restored the painting and frame and stored it until I was ready to rehang it. After a year of rebuilding the house, the painting is now back in place without any

“I don’t know how they do it, but they brought this art back to life for us.” | Carolina Minetti sign of damage.” Carolina Minetti of Lake Forest has had “nothing but positive experiences” with The Conservation Center. The Minettis began collecting Latin American art, and The Center has helped them clean, restore, frame, and hang pieces over the years. Minetti purchased one especially beautiful piece by a hard-to-find artist about five years ago in Peru, where the humidity is high. They brought the piece home to a dry, cold Chicago winter. About a year later, they noticed the paint was cracking so they called The Conservation Center — which not only restored the painting to its original glory, but also helped the family determine household environmental factors to prevent this from happening again. Says Minetti, “I don’t know how they do it, but they brought this art back to life for us.” ■

Construction is underway in the Countryside neighborhood, where a project involving road stabilization and repairs promises to deliver smoother pavement that should last 16 years. The Northfield Township Road District has contracted with Rock Solid Stabilization & Reclamation, as well as Peter Baker & Son Paving, to install new streets in the neighborhood for the first time in a decade. The plan includes recycling old paving materials on-site, cutting back on the environmental impact of placing old road materials in landfills and saving the township over $500,000 in transportation and disposal costs.

New look, food unveiled at O’Neil’s ■ by simon murray On a recent afternoon at O’Neil’s in Winnetka, a 500-gallon tank filled with tropical fish stands imposingly, a revamped bar exudes modern casual chic, and the exposed kitchen is buzzing. But the restaurant isn’t open. A confused customer wanders in and is greeted by the owners, Mary and Patrick O’Neil, who politely inform her that they are purely open for dinner starting at 5 p.m. from Monday through Sunday; no lunch anymore. The customer can hardly contain herself, saying exactly what everyone’s thinking: “You’ve changed so much!” Indeed. The O’Neils have seen a trend or two in their time managing restaurants. Before opening their eponymous casual fine dining in Winnetka, they had already overseen standalone locations, starting with The Noodle in Wilmette. O’Neil’s transformation from a quaint family-owned restaurant with wood paneling into a contemporary family-owned restaurant with an open concept and kidfriendly dining is finally complete. But that change isn’t limited to the décor. The food has been transformed as well. While the staples — salmon, duck, calamari, and Caesar salad — will stay the same (“We would never change those,” says Mary) — Chef Ramiro and Chef Josh, who have been with the establishment for more than two years, have created inventive new dishes. Surprises abound. The drunken shrimp, for instance, brings together tequila and

“When pairing food and beverages, I feel it’s a creative opportunity to complement a dish by either matching or contrasting flavors.” | Mary O’Neil kaitafi-battered noodles on jumbo-sized shrimp, combining into one delectable appetizer. “Everyone does coconut shrimp,” says Chef Ramiro when asked about what makes this plate different. Instead of having shredded coconut invade the flavoring, the kaitafi lets your mouth savor the texture and the subtle tastes. But they’ve also rolled out the big guns. After the bar manager, Michael Pomerantz, mixed up a Mata Hari for the cocktail menu, Mary suggested the chefs should create a food pairing to counter balance the bold spices, including sweet vermouth infused with chai tea. What they came up with was a seared scallop and creamy risotto dish that blends curry with the bold flavors found in the cocktail. The pair is best tried together. “When pairing food and beverages, I feel it’s a creative opportunity to complement a dish by either matching or contrasting flavors,” says Mary, who began creating cocktails at their Trifecta Grill in Winnetka. “Keeping in mind the body — or weight — of the wine or cocktail is also an important aspect to consider.”

The Winter Salad is part of the new menu at O'Neil's in Winnetka.

Another, more traditional pairing, is what she decided to do with a staple on their menu for over 22 years: the duck. It’s rich, savory dark meat has been paired with the award-winning Sonoma Cutrer Pinot Noir. “I wanted an exceptional pinot noir that would enhance our equally exceptional duck without competing,” notes Mary. “A heavier red, a Cabernet for example, would have a heavier body that could possibly overpower

the entrée.” For those known to have the simplest of tastes —kids — O’Neil’s has also perfected the “Clean Plate Club,” a menu that tries to elevate the standard kids’ meal of chicken fingers and French fries found at most restaurants. Youngsters are given the option of fried mac and cheese balls with a “ying yang” sauce, cheese pizza flatbread, chicken skewers with lemon butter orzo, matchstick steamed carrots, lotus chips and more. ■

And it’s always the right season for blending. Luckily, the power doesn’t cut out in Glenview, and the juicers keep whirling vigorously. As an integrative medicine physician and owner of a juice bar in The Glen Town Center, Temple’s credentials are being put to the test with a question: How long can a person go on juices alone? “We can go for stretches at a time without any food,” says the Highland Park resident, noting that humankind has evolved to be inherently nomadic in nature. But that doesn’t mean the extreme juice cleanse made famous in the movie “Fat, Sick, & Nearly Dead” is recommended for everyone. “We’re targeting the people who already juice but also the people who are not familiar with it but who want to get healthy,” says Temple. “Maybe they’ve heard of this juicing thing, but it’s intimidating. I have to admit, I was intimidated when I first started. ‘What do I put with what?’ It’s tricky.” Temple, the medical director of the Integrative Medicine Program at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine, completed a two-year fellowship in integrative medicine at the University of Arizona under the supervision of Dr. Andrew Weil — a pioneer of integrative medicine — after she realized, firsthand, that modern Western medicine wasn’t the only means to achieving total health. Four years ago, Temple became curious about juicing after hearing about it from her patients. Since Temple does everything — from chromotherapy to acupuncture — before prescribing it, she felt obligated to

try it for herself. Her friend Kim King, also of Highland Park, joined her, and together they started coming up with creative ways to enjoy blending fruits and vegetables. “I was amazed at how delicious her creations were,” admits Temple. “[Kim] has an amazing sense of what tastes good together and what doesn’t.” Now, Temple and King are business

partners that have adopted a “clean” model for success. It all boils down to a ratio: 80-20. For each juice, 80 percent of the mix is vegetable and 20 percent consists of fruits or sweeter tasting ingredients (but always organic and locally sourced as much as possible). Committing to that equation and broadening it to encapsulate all areas of her life

(80 percent strict dieting: 20 percent moderate indulgence), King was able to shed 100 pounds drinking one juice a day for two years. She says she was inspired on this path by Joe Cross, the man behind the documentary “Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead” who invited her to his first ever “reboot” camp in Rhinebeck, N.Y. King’s creations now litter Mingle’s menu with inventive names that playfully hint at their ingredients (I Don’t Carrot All; Give Me the Beet Boys). And in honor of Temple’s friend Billy Corgan, frontman of The Smashing Pumpkins: DJ Ivory Tower and Mellon Collie.

“Like a really good chef, [Kim] just knows how to improvise,” says Temple. The storm dissipates and the juice bar — which also serves seasonal food including hot organic soup, fresh baked bread, and gluten-free desserts — fills up with customers who make the trek in rain or shine for their daily healthy serving. “It’s the most important thing in my diet,” says Lola Delic, who started juicing eight years ago. “It’s like a gateway to vibrant health. Once you start juicing, you give up the coffees, the caffeine.” Sitting across from her, Joanne Boufis, a first-time customer at Mingle agrees, although she sheepishly admits she had asked for coffee when she first walked in. But goes on to say the Lite My Fire (carrots, beets, orange, limes, jalapeño) is a good replacement. “I do feel like I’m getting a boost. I like when you can feel it,” says Boufis. “No Red Bull — just jalapeno.” ■

MY FAVORITE WEEKEND

Lisa and Mark talk Turkey

During their recent honeymoon, Lisa Wolfe and Mark DiGanci traveled to eight different countries. Most memorable was their time spent in two Turkish cities. First stop was Kusadasi, where the excavation of a city named Ephesus, partially destroyed during an earthquake 2,500 years ago, is ongoing — and seemingly never-ending. “We had a private tour of a new section that had been opened by a man who had worked on the excavation for 40 years,” Lisa says. “He said, ‘I will never see the end of this project.’ “ The Wolfes were amazed by one of the best surviving examples of Roman architecture (the Roman Republic took control of the city in 129 BC) in the world. “It was so advanced. They had heated floors and running water back in the day,” Lisa notes. “We were walking on the same pathway created by the Romans.” Next was Istanbul, a spot Lisa had visited before — and had vowed on the spot to one day have a Turkish chandelier in her home. They walked to the Grand Bazaar, one of the oldest covered markets in the world. After drinking green tea and beer with a

Newlyweds Lisa Wolfe and Mark DiGanci of Lake Forest enjoyed the splendors of Kusadasi and Istanbul.

LOVE & MARRIAGE

Empty-nesters can enjoy the excitement of dates again ■ by joanna brown Shortly before I turned on my furnace this fall, I wrote about the potential benefits of taking a golf lesson with my spouse. Northbrook Park District teaching pro Michael Wenzel explained to me that “taking a lesson helps to bring couples together with their games so that each has a better idea of what the other should be working on.” Norma Morley — the director at Montessori Connection, a preschool in Highland Park — was quick to email me her endorsement. She and a friend took up golf about four years ago as a way to spend more time together and with their respective husbands — even while the women both work full-time. “We have gone on golf weekends with our friends to different places, therefore we are traveling a bit more,” Morley wrote. “I am playing for the pure enjoyment of being outdoors on a beautiful day and sharing a hobby with my husband, as we are

empty-nesters and socializing with our best friends. We have a lot of fun, and he is happy to include me as he is now getting out more than he used to. It has been a relationship enhancer.” Lynn Zakeri, a licensed clinical social worker with offices in Northfield and Skokie, commended their efforts. Finding a low-risk activity over which you can reconnect with your spouse pays dividends. “When you have kids at home, doing things with your spouse can be a chore to fit in. But when you have the time and want to do it, it feels like a date and that can be a real joy,” she explained. “You got married because you like each other. You got through the chaos, and now you put that energy into each other.” Zakeri recommended that spouses start talking about their newfound free time in simple ways — and without any complaints. Rather than whining that your spouse spends too much time on the golf course or in the office, invite your spouse to do something

specific with you. Ask if you can accompany him or her out on a favorite activity. “Think about what you would enjoy doing together and say something like, ‘I don’t have anything going on Saturday afternoon. What about you? Would you like to do something with me?’ Zakeri said. “Sixteen weeks of golf lessons is risky, but spend two hours apple picking or volunteer somewhere for an afternoon or go to a museum where you can enjoy each other’s company.” Would you believe there’s a whole Pinterest page dedicated to empty-nesting? Ideas range from ways to pray for your husband to signs that proclaim, “You’re in my inappropr iate thoughts.” In between are ideas for stuffing a sevenday pillbox with encouragement and verses and stuffing a date night jar full of ideas written in tiny slips of paper. Tell me what activity you’ve rediscovered as an empty-nester. Send an email to joanna@northshoreweekend.com.■

WINES OF THE WEEK ■ by johnson ho As the first cold fronts arrive on the North Shore, warm comfort foods provide a great relief when paired with a perfect wine. After 30 years of observation, here are some oftenoverlooked top-value finds and some delightful surprises when paired with a little twist to the old standbys.

SATURDAY DINNER 2006 Matanzas Creek Jackson Park Vineyard Merlot, Sonoma; $40 A virtually under-appreciated treasure in the vast lake of boring Merlots, this organically grown and artistically sophisticated red traces its genesis to the winemaker’s birth home in Bordeaux. An unbridled young rascal in the archconservative Bordeaux region four decades ago, Pierre immigrated to California to find the freedom to create innovative styles of wine unencumbered by often irrational rigid rules and traditions. He found the best terrain for the Merlot grape in an olive grove in the hills above Sonoma Valley. The rich clay soil, wonderful sun exposure, moderate temperature and naturally balanced ecosystem reminded him of the exclusive Chateau Petrus, the flagship estate wine made strictly from Merlot grapes. He succeeded superbly, but the production level has remained too small for national recognition. However, among real experts, this elegant rendition captures the mellow, understated opulence that has permitted Chateau Petrus to charge over $1,000 per bottle. A veritable steal and gorgeous partner for potato leek or split pea soups, veal stew, pork shoulder roast or risottos. Best 5-10 years after vintage and after 45 minutes of decanting. MIDWEEK MEAL 2009 Pio Cesare Dolcetto d’Alba, Piedmont, Italy; $22 Another arcane discovery, this one stands in the shadows of the legendary Barolos and Barbarescos nearby, which command up to $800 per bottle. “Dolcetto” in Italian refers to the grape variety’s soft tannin expression in contrast to the leathery and astringent Nebbiolo grape of its neighbor. These grapes require a decade or more of aging before reaching their prime. In great vintages and in the hands of quality cellar masters, as in this case, Dolcetto becomes a joyful tenor with a generous range of talents at a bargain price. The local cucina commonly features ravioli filled with finely ground lamb, beef, pork and mushrooms (white truffle!) as well as with hearty sausages simmered in pasta sauce. A fantastic standby choice for casual dinners with friends and family without financial pain. Best 3-8 years from vintage and after 30 minutes of decanting. BEST VALUE

2006 Contratto Panta Rei Barbera d’Asti, Piedmont, Italy; $22

Like the previous wine, Barbera d’Asti suffers from the shadow effect of its prestigious neighbors and remains little appreciated here. Just a tad less rich, but more fruit forward and succulent in the finish, great Barberas represent the favorite option on wine lists of better Continental restaurants with autumnal specials or authentic Italian trattorias featuring vegetarian specials, lightly rich pasta dishes and salami platters. Little known is its charming affinity for mildly spicy Oriental fare and chocolate desserts — especially cookies!

STANDOUT STUDENT

Google impressed by North Shore Country Day sophomore ■ by jake jarvi Every year, Google hosts a software developer’s conference called Google I/O. The purpose is to introduce software developers to the new range of technologies Google

“I’m not doing this because I feel like I have to do this to get into college. I’m just really interested in it.” | Tommy McHugh will release for the coming year and the tools developers will have for creating applications for Google’s Web platforms and mobile devices. Tickets to the two-day event have been known to sell out in less than an hour One of the attendees this year,

however, didn’t have to worry about tickets. For the second summer in a row, Tommy McHugh, a 15-year-old sophomore at North Shore Country Day School in Winnetka, was invited to the conference as an academic partner. “I’ve been working on programming and building apps and websites for awhile,” says McHugh. “I’ve done a fair amount of open source contributions. A couple people at Google noticed that and invited me out since I had worked primarily with some of Google’s key technologies.” The technologies McHugh has invested his time into help other software developers build apps for Google’s devices with more ease. He’s built libraries that help people access online resources and bring them into apps. He’s been working on a way for people to develop Android apps for Chromebook, Google’s laptop brand, which hasn’t been possible before. And he also builds apps of his own.

He released his first app, Photo Cloud, at the age of 13. It was an iPhone app the synced photos from the user’s phone to the iCloud before Apple instituted the Photo Stream feature. He’s currently at work on an app called Prep for Google’s Android phones. Prep is designed to collect all the pertinent information from a user’s multiple social media platforms and file sharing sites and compile them for ease of use based on where the user currently is and what they’re cur-

rently trying to accomplish. “I’ve really loved programming since sixth or seventh grade, when I started fiddling around with computers,” McHugh says. “I think it’s going to be more important for everyone to learn as we’re in this new digital age when everyone’s using their iPads and their iPhones and their computers. I’m not doing this because I feel like I have to do this to get into college. I’m just really interested in it.” His personal interest is such

that in addition to working in the open source community, creating his own apps, and developing libraries and shortcuts for other app developers, he’s undergoing an online computer science class through a company called Amplify. It’s a way of supplementing his academics and focusing on his area of interest, as well as receiving credit through his school as an independent study. Evidence that he’s also good at academic programming.

22 | HOME & DESIGN

Country estate features comfortable elegance

The pristine interior includes a DeGuilio kitchen.

■ by ann marie scheidler Once upon a time, Chicago’s elite traveled from the hustle and bustle of the city to the serenity of Lake Forest for a piece of land and the tranquility that came with it. And while many years have passed since Lake Forest’s founding, its allure hasn’t changed much. A young couple was taken with Lake Forest’s charm when they built their estate at 464 S. Ridge Road a little more than a decade ago. While convenient to Chicago’s main thoroughfares, this home is tucked quietly among the trees of a secluded lot, providing solitude and sanctuary to those who are seeking it. This French provincial is appealing to homeowners wishing to enjoy all of its space. In the six-bedroom, six-full-bathroom abode where detailed ceilings soar to lofty heights, the expansive rooms can be adapted for many different uses and lifestyles. While this home is inherently beautiful, it’s intrinsically functional. And as the homeowners who raised two teenage sons in this house will attest — it had to be. The DeGuilio kitchen is the perfect example of this thoughtful design. While the space boasts of all the finishes one might see in a top showroom, it’s a cook’s kitchen above all else. “I love our kitchen,” says the homeowner. “It’s white, it’s clean, it’s modern. But I love to cook healthy, delicious meals for my family. I like to test recipes and try new things. This kitchen is for cooking and for enjoying your family.” The wide-open spaces throughout the home lend itself to be a place to gather. The sleek neutral décor makes the home easy to love. “The flooring and fabrics we chose for the house are durable,” says the homeowner, who knows they’ve been tested. “People may shy away from the light colors, but I love how it feels warm and comfortable. And everything we’ve picked is washable. I’ve washed everything myself.” The homeowners were also astute in adding touches that make the home unique even among the luxurious — chandeliers that create an intimate atmosphere in these oversized spaces, dressing rooms with built-in display shelves and softly lit cabinetry, stateof the-art media and exercise rooms, and an expansive wine cellar for even the most sophisticated collector. The pristine interior is only surpassed by the elegant landscape surrounding the home, where the European influences are clear.

Glenbrook South’s gridders fall to New Trier again but make Trevians earn first-round win ■ by tj brown

sports@northshoreweekend.com Peter Wassman and Carlos Benitez saved their best for last. The Glenbrook South seniors saw their high school football careers end on Nov. 1 with the Titans’ (6-4) 24-14 loss at New Trier in the first round of the Class 8A state playoffs. But at least they provided highlights that they will not easily forget. Nor will rival New Trier (9-1), which moves on to play Chicago Curie on Nov. 8 (1 p.m.). The Trevians survived a Glenbrook South defense that was much stouter than it was in a regular season CSL South tilt on Oct. 10 in Northfield, which the Trevians won 49-24. “It was the best defense we played all year,” Wassman said. “We were able to put ourselves in this game in ways we haven’t always been able to do this season.” Wassman, a safety, and Benitez, a linebacker, led a unit that limited New Trier to just a field goal in the first half. Wassman made the first three tackles of the game, and it just went on from there. “I knew everyone on our defense would have to play their best football, so I just wanted to be sure I did my part,” he said. Wassman finished with seven solo tackles and three assists. He also had a pass breakup. Benitez, who played a big part in that first defensive series with an open-field tackle on a quarterback option run and a tackle for a loss on another QB sneak, was in on nine tackles, four of them solos. “Carlos played the best game he’s played at linebacker,” GBS coach Mike Noll said. “Peter Wassman played really well the last half of the season.” The improvement showed as the Titans entered the fourth

quarter trailing only 10-7. This is a team that allowed an average of 38.5 points in its four CSL South games, not counting the forfeit win over Waukegan. “Our kids were locked into their reads, and we stopped them, contained them,” Noll said. “I think we were right on with our defense. We were right there. We just had to make a few more plays.” Wassman relished the chance to get another look at New Trier, an athletic team led by sophomore quarterback Clay Czyzynski (8-for-14, 100 yards) and senior running back Kevin Mulhern (28 carries, 144 yards). “We had a lot of good film on them, and it was our second time playing them this season. We knew what to expect,” Wassman said. “We were really happy we got to play them. Knowing I played the best I possibly could, it’s all I could really possibly ask of myself and my teammates.” Leading the team in tackles was lineman Shouki Shunnarah, who tallied 10 solos and one assist despite playing with a broken hand. “They’re great players, both of them,” Wassman said of Benitez and Shunnarah. “They both played their hearts out tonight and made things happen up front. They do their jobs so I can do mine.” Shunnarah’s injury wasn’t enough to keep him out of action, but GBS was down six starters. “I’m really proud of our kids,” Noll said. “We’re missing some really key players.” The Titans’ offense struggled to score despite a couple of sustained drives in the first half. A holding call on a first down from the Trevians’ 20-yard line helped to halt a drive started on the GBS 2-yard line. They also had another holding call that erased a pass play that would have converted a first down ended another drive.

“We had our chances,” Noll said. “We just had to maximize every chance.” Senior quarterback Fitz Stadler put GBS on the board late in the third quarter by completing a seven-yard pass to senior Peter Pappas, completing a 12-play, 90-yard drive, and making it a three-point game. After New Trier answered with a touchdown, a Stadler pass was intercepted in the end zone. Stadler was 11-for-24 for 156 yards and two interceptions. Senior Chase Daniel was his top target with five catches for 108 yards. Junior Ryan Janczak led the Titans with 120 yards on 24 carries. ■

What EvEry COntraCt shOuld havE Whether you’re writing your own contract or using a preprinted one, every contract should have specific basic elements. Include, of course, the address of the property and contingencies, financing terms and purchase price, and closing date. Other specific elements a contract must contain are: • Disposition of deposit: Who gets the binder/good faith money if the contract is terminated? It varies with the circumstances, such as a home inspection that does not meet the buyers satisfaction or the seller not being willing to make the necessary repairs (buyer gets the binder back) or such as the buyer not being able to be approved. • Seller’s Responsibilities: Include passing clear title of the property, maintaining the present condition until closing, making any agreed upon repairs. • What Stays: What fixtures and personal property remain after closing? Make your list written, not verbal and be specific. If you ask for the curtains for example, make sure you include the hardware that holds them up. • Final Walk Through: This is your chance to make sure the house is in order before closing. When you write the contract, it should be specific about what exactly happens should the walk through be unsatisfactory to the buyers.

'AIDEN THE CAUSE How sweet it is: Loyola Academy’s Aidan Walsh dances into the end zone in the team’s opening round state playoff win over Warren. photography

by joel lerner

Walsh proves to be very effective in state playoff opener ■ by kevin reiterman

sports@northshoreweekend.com When the season opened in Milwaukee in late August, the best place to find Aidan Walsh was approximately seven yards behind the line of scrimmage. The senior arguably held the cushiest and safest position on the Loyola Academy football team: holder. By rule, those who receive snaps from center are protected from intentional contact. Roughing the holder is a serious offense: a 15-yard penalty. Walsh’s other duty — his side job, if you will — was third-string quarterback. Both positions lack prestige. In the corporate workforce, they’re equivalent to entrylevel positions. They’re a far cry from the corner office with the breathtaking view. Enter the Incredulous Case of Aidan Walsh. For someone to start there and end up where Walsh ended up —starting QB for one of the best football programs in the state — is as rare and curious as it is fabulous and fable-like. Walsh, who was making only his third

start of the season, wasn’t hard to find on Nov. 1 in LA’s 37-20 victory over visiting Warren in the opening round of the Class 8A state playoffs. The 6-foot-1, 185-pounder was the one delivering the deep ball for long gains and gaining big yards on zone reads. This new CEO of the LA offense also wasn’t hard to find after the game. He was in the one in demand. He was a microphone magnet. Soon after Walsh had just finished an interview with a local cable television station, he was bombarded by more questions from members of the print media. “This is awesome,” said Walsh, who completed 13-for-16 for 176 yards and two touchdowns. “I love coming out here and playing for my teammates and my school.” Senior Michael Carlin, a two-year starter at center, is not surprised by Walsh’s sudden success. “I knew he had it in him,” said Carlin, who also snapped for DJ Melsheimer and Emmett Clifford before they went down with concussion and shoulder injuries, respectively. “I was hoping he’d get a shot to play. “He’s a great leader who is not afraid to get down and dirty,” Carlin added. “And he’s got great receivers. He knows that he doesn’t

have to do too much.” Walsh was on the money throughout the 32 minutes against Warren (6-4). In the first half, he was extra chummy with his tight end: Bobby Walker. He targeted Walker five times in the first half and connected with No. 85 five times for 57 yards, including a 14-yard strike in the end zone with 1:32 left in the first quarter. Walsh’s other favorite receiver was senior Spencer Cecola (4 catches, 93 yards), who was very Brandon Marshall-like on his 26-yard TD reception with just over six minutes left in the third quarter. Cecola leaped high and hauled in Walsh’s high spiral despite some glue-like coverage by the Warren secondary. “I just had to put it up there,” said Walsh of his 6-3, 193-pound receiver. “I knew Spencer would go up and get it.” Walsh also displayed some impressive leg speed on the opening series of the second half, when he scored from 20 yards out on a zone read. It didn’t take LA offensive coordinator Tyler Vradenburg long to smile at the mention of Walsh’s name. “I couldn’t be prouder. Proud of the way he’s

prepared for this moment,” said the assistant. “He never said a word [when he started the season No. 3 on the depth chart]. He never said, ‘It should be me [at No. 1].’ “He’s so humble. The guys on this team love him,” Vradenburg added. Notable: The Ramblers, seeded No. 8, will travel to No. 1 Stevenson on Nov. 8 (1 p.m.). It will be a rematch of last year’s state semifinal game, which LA won in magical fashion, 15-14. … LA’s leading ball carrier against Warren was senior Dara Laja (16 carries, 141 yards) … Mark Nichol, the defensive player of the year in the Chicago Catholic League Blue Division, also was a factor in the running game: 10 rushes, 62 yards. He had a 6-yard TD run in the third quarter. … On defense, Nichol finished with a team-high eight tackles, including two for losses. Brock Hardwick and Daniel Pinelli had five tackles each, while Mark Dowdle intercepted two passes, returning one for 45 yards to set up Nichol’s TD. … In addition to Nichol, the other all-conference players include Dowdle, Owen Buscaglia, Thomas Dreher, Calvin Falkenhayn, Brian O’Brien and Ryan Zinkula. ■

Spartans rallied around inspiring goalkeeper Shapiro ■ by dan shalin

sports@northshoreweekend.com The Glenbrook North boys soccer team’s 2014 results were mixed, but senior captain Jake Santellano said the Spartans were able to keep wins, losses and ties in perspective. That’s because projected starting goalkeeper Teddy Shapiro, a senior, missed the entire season after being diagnosed with bone cancer (osteosarcoma) of the pelvis. The cancer was caught early, and recovery rates are high for those with the disease, but Shapiro has spent four days a week this fall going through chemotherapy at Chicago’s Rush University Medical Center. Shapiro was diagnosed just before the start of the season. For Glenbrook North players and coaches, the last few months have been about showing their support for a well-liked member of the Spartans family and simply appreciating the opportunity to play the sport they love. “It’s something that was in our heads all season,” said Santellano, an all-Central Suburban League North midfielder. “It was the reason we came out to practice, worked as hard as we did and went through the grind. It was a huge realization for me about how much I appreciate being able to be out there day in and day out and just enjoying what we do.” Glenbrook North head coach Paul Vignocchi said spending time with Teddy and the Shapiro family has been a reminder about what’s truly important in life.

“It’s something I look at too. That it’s so much more than just wins and losses in life,” he said. “It’s always nice to come home and give my kids a nice hug. When you get home late after a difficult game, you (look at them) and think about how there is so much more to it than the game.” Shapiro spent as much time around the team as possible, sitting on the bench for several games. During the Aug. 27 season opener against Foreman, he actually started the game in goal, before being removed seconds after the opening kickoff to a standing ovation. He attended Senior Night and also sent a “good luck” video message to the team ahead of Glenbrook North’s Oct. 25 regional final against New Trier, which the Spartans lost 3-1. Glenbrook North also experienced understandable, though less important, on-the-field repercussions as a result of Shapiro’s absence. Shapiro had been the starting keeper for much of his junior year, and his replacement was untested junior Ian Albert. Albert’s inexperience was evident early in the campaign, but he got better with time. “(Albert) was the most improved player in my opinion,” Vignocchi said. “We knew he was going to be a good keeper, but he had to get game experience. He got better as the season went on.” The Spartans also got better as the campaign progressed. The team featured several players getting their first varsity experience, and Vignocchi also implemented a more

fluid, possession style-of-play. All of which led to some early struggles. During one stretch in September, Glenbrook North went six games without a win. “We played inconsistent, especially at the beginning of the year,” Vignocchi said. “A lot of guys struggled with the idea of trying to compete. High school soccer is a grind, and there are times you’re playing three very good teams in a week. You have to bring your best game, and that’s where we struggled early on.” But performances and results picked up. There was a 2-2 tie with CSL North co-champ Niles North on Sept. 23, a 3-1 win over Lake Forest four days later and a 2-0 Senior Night victory over Niles West on Oct. 15. Perhaps, Glenbrook North’s best performance of the campaign came in the regional semifinal, when it beat conference rival Maine West 7-1. “Over the year, as a team, I would say we had success,” said Santellano, a third-year starter and co-captain. “From where we started to where we ended, we grew as a team in a huge positive way.” Santellano, who will play next year at UW-Whitewater, earned all-CSL North honors, as did senior midfielder and co-captain Ethan Glass and senior defender Josh Hakimian. The coach said the future looks fairly bright thanks to important contributions from youngsters like sophomore defender Seth Grossman, sophomore midfielder Jackson Grabill and freshman defender Evan Goldberg, a mid-season call-up. ■

sports@northshoreweekend.com Sara Prenner was “Sara Cool” on the outside. The Glenbrook South senior played close to flawless volleyball in the Class 4A regional championship match at Grayslake Central on Oct. 30. Despite lining up in that invisible position — libero — the 5-foot-5 Prenner was hard to miss. She proved invaluable in her team’s roller coaster-like victory over the host Rams 25-15, 12-25, 26-24. “One of the things I like about Sara is that she doesn’t get rattled out there,” said GBS coach Katie Hoover, who guided her team to its 30th win of the season (30-7, 9-1). But even Prenner had to admit that her heart started to pound a little at the conclusion of the third set. A 24-24 score will do that. “It was a high-pressure situation,” Prenner said. “My heart was racing. But we kept things under control and pulled it out.” The 4th-seeded Titans, who were scheduled to play No. 1 Libertyville in a sectional semifinal match at Glenbrook North on Nov. 4, looked to be in a heap of trouble in the third set, trailing 14-9. But there was no panic. “We’ve won a lot of matches this year by coming from behind,” said Hoover. “I think tonight they trusted their past experiences. They kept believing.” “We like to play under pressure,” said Prenner, who finished the match 21-for-23 in serve receive to go with 14 digs and five assists. “It drives us.” Prenner uses her cat-like quickness to be in the right position most of the time. She’s a nice a complement for a team which features plenty of firepower: 6-1 senior middle blocker Sylvia Wojslaw (12 kills, 4 blocks), 5-11 sophomore opposite Sarah Wojick (9 kills, 4 blocks), 5-10 junior outside hitter Cory Klapacz (9 kills), 6-0 sophomore outside hitter Julia Rytel (8 kills), and 6-0 senior middle blocker Catie Weinman (7 kills, 4 blocks). “I have a lot of confidence in our front-row players,” said Prenner. “And they’re big compared to the other teams we play.” And there’s something to be said of the trust factor. The core seniors on this squad, which includes Shannon Carroll, Hannah

Nelson, Wojslaw, Weinman and Prenner, have been through a lot. They’ve won a lot of matches starting with a 13-0 eighthgrade season at Springman Middle School in 2010 followed by two solid under-level seasons at GBS (1 loss as freshmen, 3 losses as sophomores). Truthfully, the Titans didn’t look like a 30-match winner in the second set against Grayslake Central. They fell behind 7-1, allowing the Rams to seize momentum. But, according to Prenner, the team was able to turn that negative into a positive. “We were down by so much that we were telling each other not to even look at the scoreboard,” Prenner said. “We used (that set) to get the momentum back. Instead of getting down on ourselves, we were going to push ourselves harder in the third set.” Competing, meanwhile, has never been a problem for Prenner. Her athletic career started in a gymnastics gym. And she was a rising star in that sport, especially on vault (4th at state meet in 2008), for the Northbrook Gymnastics Club. But, after reaching Level 6, she stopped training and competing. “It was too much,” she said. Volleyball, as it turned out, was just right. Notable: GBS became a 30-match winner for the third time in school history. The best record is owned by Hoover’s 2009-10 squad, which went 37-5 and placed third in the Class 4A state tournament. The 200203 team went to the Elite Eight with a 36-1 record under the direction of coach Daniel Schultz. Glenbrook North The Spartans were eliminated from postseason play on Oct. 28, when they dropped a 25-16, 25-13 decision to Hersey at the Class 4A Stevenson Regional. Grace Crue finished the contest with seven kills. Sophie Piskel added four kills, while Rachel Resnick wound up with seven digs. GBN reached the regional semifinal round after knocking off Zion-Benton 25-16, 22-25, 25-20 on Oct. 27. Samantha Heyman led the team with nine kills. The other stat leaders were Crus (6 kills), Resnick (4 kills, 7 digs), Keira McCarthy (11 digs), Lex Chron (7 digs), Lucy Davis (5 digs) and Maddie Fournier (4 kills). The Spartans, who are hosting the sectional, finished the season 18-18.■

Wojslaw wowed ’em in the Class 4A Grayslake Central volleyball regional championship match on Oct. 30, striking a Titans-high 12 kills in a 25-15, 12-25, 26-24 defeat of the host school. The 6-foot-1 Sky High club volleyball member (Black 17) had hammered seven kills in a 25-14, 25-11 rout of Prospect in a sectional semifinal two days earlier. Reigning Central Suburban League South champion and fourth-seeded Glenbrook South (30-7) — blessed with a wealth of weapons in the front row — was scheduled to face top-seeded Libertyville in a Glenbrook North Sectional semifinal on Nov. 4.

For her sensational efforts, Wojslaw will receive a special gift from

This team definitely is on the fast track. Led by four seniors, the Deerfield High School boys cross country team was the runaway winner at the Class 2A Fenton Sectional on Nov. 1. The Warriors cruised to the team title, beating the host Bison 42-85. This Jeremy Kauffman-coached squad now will compete in the IHSA state meet in Peoria on Nov. 8. Charles Nash had one of his best races ever. He claimed runner-up honors with a three-mile time of 15:44. The only runner he couldn’t beat was Chicago Lindblom’s Walmer Saavedra (15:33). Deerfield, which won its own regional on Oct. 25, also received strong performances from fellow seniors Billy Anderson (4th, 15:57), Ben Chambers (8th, 16:11) and Alex Wolfe (11th, 16:13). Sophomore Michael Hincker was the team’s fifth runner: 17th in 16:28. Meanwhile, Deerfield’s girls team advanced to the state meet after capturing runner-up honors at the Fenton Sectional on Nov. 1. The Warriors tallied 97 points. Chicago Latin took the title with 25 points. Deerfield’s Abbey Osborn continued her solid running. After taking third in the Deerfield Regional a week earlier, the senior standout battled to a fourth-place finish at the Fenton Sectional in a three-mile time of 19:05. Sophomore Kelley Osborn ran No. 2 for the Warriors, finishing 11th overall in 19:45. Others in Deerfield’s top five included Erin Phillips (20th, 20:29), Jordyn Jensen (22nd, 20:31) and Nicole Abramson (40th, 21:18).

Glenbrook North Nate Whitfield kept his season alive. Going up against a tough field at the Class 3A Niles West Sectional on Nov. 1, the Glenbrook North junior raced to a 14th-place finish in a swift time: 15:14. Whitfield, who helped GBN to a fifth-place finish in the Loyola Regional on Oct. 25, will be a solo act at Saturday’s state meet in Peoria. Glenbrook South The future is bright for Lizzy Shaw. The GBS freshman punched her ticket to this Saturday’s state meet in Peoria by taking 23rd overall in the tough Class 3A Niles West Sectional on Nov. 1. She completed in the threemile layout in 18:19. Loyola Academy Jack Carroll added to his resume. Two weeks after taking first in the Chicago Catholic League Meet, the LA senior earned top honors in the Class 3A Niles West Sectional on Nov. 1. He finished in 14:54, which was one second better than York’s Charlie Kern. Carroll will have plenty of company at Saturday’s state meet in Peoria. The Ramblers qualified as a team with their thirdplace finish (103 points). The other key contributors were Todd Swenson (18th, 15:17), Paolo Tiongson (21st, 15:19), Patrick Reilly-Hayward (31st) and Matthew Kadus (35th, 15:37). Meanwhile, junior Kathryn House led the way (8th, 17:54) and helped the LA girls qualify to state with a fifth-place finish (195 points). Others in LA’s top five were Caroline Zaworski (35th), Lainey McKinley (37th), Payton Hoag (45th) and Allie Zahn (72nd). ■

34 | SUNDAY BREAKFAST CHILD WITH DOWN SYNDROME HELPS PRINCIPAL LEARN EVEN MORE ABOUT FAITH, HOPE AND CHARITY ■ by simon murray

On an unusually warm fall day, the Greenhouse Inn Restaurant — so named for its airy, large-windowed design complete with a sunflower at every table — is packed. Numbers tower over the tables, with pens and color-coded menus at the ready. At a table close by, a woman in an old button-up sweater sits with serene concentration. “That’s Sister Rosemary,” says Katie Carden, table 14, as she checks off her order on the bright-pink soup and salad menu. At the behest of the waitress, Jill, who jokingly needles Carden for taking so long (“Oh, Jill I’m sleeping on the job!”), Carden orders a chicken balsamic salad and a glass of lemonade before returning the slip to the waitress. Jill is a resident of Misericordia, a 31-acre community that provides continual care for more than 600 children and adults with developmental disabilities; and the Greenhouse Inn is part of its campus. Its staff of servers, cooking assistants, bakers, cashiers is made up of its full-time residents. Carden appears to know everyone. Every person who ambles past the table stays and chats with her. So it’s difficult to imagine there ever being a time in her life when she wasn’t completely in her element at Miseracordia. But there was. Not long ago, Carden walked through the doors with a two-week-old baby in her hands. “A deer in the headlights with my little Ryan,” remembers Carden. Ryan, her sixth child, had just been diagnosed with Down syndrome, and Carden was close to tears, feeling entirely hopeless for his future. “I wasn’t sure I wanted to be here, I wasn’t sure how to deal with the whole Down syndrome thing. But I walked out, honestly, feeling like there was so much hope,” says Carden. “Within a couple weeks we realized its business as usual.” Now, the Greenhouse Inn is Carden’s favorite brunch spot; a place where she meets with coworkers, friends, and even journalists. Carden, whose eyes harbor a deep, crystalline blue while she talks, sees her life as coming full circle. When she was nine years old she took a babysitting course, and waited until she was 10 to get her Red Cross certification. Afterwards, she began babysitting “for everybody in the neighborhood,” including her favorite: a girl named Missy who lived across the street. Missy had cerebral palsy, and Carden knew after babysitting her that she wanted to become a special education teacher. Today, Carden lives in the same house she grew up in with her husband, Tom. And though she was never able to
