FROM THE

I used to hesitate before telling strangers the nature of my relationship to my dad except it says a great deal about who he is and why he means so much. My dad is my former fifth grade teacher who became my high school hall of fame tennis coach. Eventually, when the kid-less, never-married bachelor started dating my mother (a single parent with five children), I was horrified and loathed him (and her) for a bit. When I was in college, they finally married after dating for years. But it wasn’t until he suffered a near-fatal heart attack – he literally died but my mother, a nurse, revived him before the ambulance arrived – that our relationship strengthened. When Dad-Bill, as I call him, and my mother divorced, he could have walked away and divorced me too, just like my father had decades ago when I was six years old and he left my mother to figure out how to raise a family on her own. But Dad-Bill didn’t leave. Instead, he became an even more integral part of my life because he chose to be there when he didn’t have to. That’s a love I don’t take for granted. It’s also the type of love I’m grateful my child has experienced from the moment she took her first breath. Earlier this week, I walked outside to see my husband and our daughter seated in the middle of the driveway watching a rabbit playing beneath the blooming magnolia tree in our yard. “See, Mommy?” Olive asked as she turned toward me, eyes wide, one arm outstretched toward the creature, the other resting on her father’s leg. “See, Mommy?” she asked again before proudly declaring, “Wabbit! Oooh!” At the sound of Olive’s excited shrieks, the rabbit darted off and into the nearby woods while she sidled up even closer to her daddy and happily sighed. It’s a rare morning when I don’t catch the two of them seated on the concrete together sharing a quiet moment. It’s even rarer that the sight doesn’t cause me to blink back tears and hope that Olive always knows how deeply her father loves her and how important it is to never take that for granted. Happy Father’s Day to all of the dads, fathers and those who so willingly fill the role of father figure. May you know how much you matter. 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

SPOTLIGHT

Tour de Clydesdale for Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund (JDRF) As told by Joe Blazis – Clydesdale member, ride chair and JDRF board member

HOW IT STARTED The Tour de Clydesdale for JDRF came about because our team, the Clydesdale Athletic Club, was looking for a ride to participate in during the Spring. When we couldn’t find a ride, we decided to host and participate in one. Our focus has always been threefold: fitness, fellowship and charity. Because of that, we wanted the ride to fit in with a phrase you’ll see on our jerseys, “Riding for Cures.” My oldest daughter Caleigh is a Type 1 diabetic, so we decided to meet with JDRF and see what we could do to help them. We came up with a plan and partnered with 3rd Turn Brewing to host the first annual ride.

HOW IT HELPS All funds raised by riders will go directly to JDRF, and sponsorship dollars remaining after costs are covered will go to JDRF as well. Our goal is to raise $40,000 for JDRF, which works to fund research toward finding a cure for Type 1 diabetes. They also work with the government to advocate for research. While work is ongoing toward a cure, they offer support and information to families and are especially supportive of families with newly-diagnosed children. T1D is an autoimmune disease, typically

affecting kids around the ages of 10-14. In some cases, kids younger or older are impacted. They are innocent victims of this disease, and JDRF works tirelessly toward a cure and toward making the daily management of the disease easier.

HOW YOU CAN HELP Community members can get involved by participating in the ride and/ or donating to the ride. Registration is free at www2.jdrf.org/goto/clydesdale. We’re asking each rider to fundraise at least $200. Non-riders can use the same website to make donations. You do not need to be an experienced cyclist to join us. There are two course choices – either a flat, 16-mile course or a hillier, 30-mile course. Both were reviewed and approved by the Oldham County Police Department, and the team will make sure no one is left behind.

AFTER THE RIDE Once the ride concludes, all riders who raise $200 will receive a ride t-shirt, free lunch and one free drink token. 3rd Turn will be open and offering all of their great beer choices. The Noes will be there performing live music as we celebrate a great ride for an awesome cause. VT 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

ABOUT THE CLYDESDALE ATHLETIC CLUB

Our members vary in size, ranging from 6’ 10” and 350 pounds to 5’ and one-third that weight. The age of our members follow the same course with those having more wisdom (approaching 70) to the less mature (middle-aged). However, none of these statistics matter to us; we invite all to join our cause. Our mission is to raise funds for cancer and diabetes research by supporting the Bike to Beat Cancer for the Norton Cancer Institute and the Tour de Clydesdale for JDRF. Inspired by the effect that these diseases have had on our lives, we see every day as a gift that should be filled with family, friends, goodwill and laughter.

TWISTED PINK ANNOUNCES SUPPORT OF YOUNG INVESTIGATOR AWARD IN COLLABORATION WITH THE CONQUER CANCER FOUNDATION OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CLINICAL ONCOLOGY On Sunday, June 3, 2018, Twisted Pink, a local non-profit organization with a mission to extend lives and improve quality of life for late stage breast cancer patients and their families by funding metastatic (stage IV) breast cancer research, presented a $50,000 grant in collaboration with The Conquer Cancer Foundation of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). The Young Investigator Award (YIA) was presented to Seth A. Wander, MD, PhD, at the Conquer Cancer Grants & Awards Ceremony held at The Hyatt Regency McCormick Place, during the ASCO annual meeting in Chicago, Illinois. The award was presented by Twisted Pink Founder and Executive Director Caroline Johnson and Twisted Pink Board Member Dr. Constance Coon, PhD, Evolent Health. “The Conquer Cancer Foundation of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) is honored by Twisted Pink’s generous commitment encouraging further research in metastatic breast cancer,” said Nancy R. Daly, MS, MPH, executive vice president and chief philanthropic officer. “Twisted Pink is working tirelessly to improve treatment and extend lives for patients with late-stage breast cancer, and we are proud to partner with this organization in supporting Dr. Wander’s cutting-edge research.” 10

Dr. Wander’s research is focused on identifying mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies in metastatic hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer. The current standard treatment for metastatic HR+ breast cancer includes the combination of an anti-estrogen with a targeted therapy that inhibits the cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK inhibitor). Despite widespread use of these combinations in the first- and second-line settings, little is known about the mechanisms and biological pathways driving resistance to these agents. In collaboration with his mentor, Dr. Nikhil Wagle, and their team at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Dr. Wander’s work harnesses next-generation genomic sequencing of patient tumor specimens in an effort to identify novel drivers of resistance to these therapeutic regimens. Potential findings are then validated through molecular experiments simulating drug response and resistance in modified breast cancer cells in the laboratory. This work may lead to a better understanding of why patients fail to respond to these widespread therapies and help in designing new treatment strategies to prevent or overcome resistance, ultimately improving survival for patients with metastatic breast cancer.

named by Business First as one of Louisville’s “People to Watch” and was recognized by her alma mater, Spalding University, with the CARITAS award for her leadership in the community and for community education. Kent Wallace, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Kindred Healthcare, will serve as chair for this year’s event. Before starting this role in February 2015, Kent had more than 25 years of leadership experience in a wide range of healthcare companies, including Vanguard Health Systems and RegionalCare Hospital Partners, Inc.

The Community Foundation of Louisville, in partnership with Louisville Visual Art, is pleased to announce that Louisville-based multimedia artist KCJ Szwedzinski is the winner of the sixth annual Mary Alice Hadley Prize for Visual Art. The $5,000 award is an opportunity for local artists to enhance their careers through a targeted enrichment experience of their own design. “My most recent body (of) work has been on Jewish memory, identity and legacy,” said Szwedzinski. “As an artist, I am continually mindful of who I intend as my audience. I question why it is important for me to make work about Judaism and how my work connects to contemporary issues.” Szwedzinski will use the award to visit the Jewish Contemporary Museum and the Holocaust Center in San Francisco, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and Archives in Washington, D.C. and the Genealogy Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana, as well as to take a course at the Rare Book

Focused on the arts and humanities, particularly visual arts, crafts, theater and the Louisville Free Public Library, the endowment has supported our community for more than 25 years.

“Art soothes and calms our collective souls. Art causes us to question and to think. Through the years, art has been used to tell the story of those who came before. The work of KCJ Szwedzinski is powerful and will cause those who see her work to pause and reflect on this horrific period in our history,” said Louisville Visual Art’s Executive Director Lindy Casebier. “Louisville Visual Art is pleased to partner with the Community Foundation of Louisville in support of KCJ’s growth as an artist and in turn share that personal growth with others in our community.”

Losing Weight Through Surgery Baptist Health offers three surgical procedures to lessen appetites and decrease the amount of food absorbed. But it’s not a simple fix. Heavy lifting is ahead. Story by Steve Kaufman Photos by Andrea Hutchinson

Your new mindset becomes that you can enjoy that bite of food without having to eat the whole thing. — Angie Keith

Angie Keith.

A BAPTIST HEALTH Baptist Health Floyd 2125 State St., New Albany, 812.949.7151 Baptist Health Louisville 4000 Kresge Way, Louisville, 502.897.8100 800.4.SOURCE baptisthealth.com

ngie Keith was always active and athletic. The Starlight, Indiana, wife and mother had thrown the discus and put the shot in high school along with playing basketball and volleyball. She even played volleyball at Saint Maryin-the-Woods College in Terre Haute. Yet, she had a lifelong battle with weight gain, phasing in and out of diets, and by the age of 40 she weighed 250 pounds. Two years ago, she signed up for the Medical Group Weight Loss program at Baptist Health Floyd in New Albany. Two years earlier, her husband Chris had gone into the program weighing 400 pounds and lost 150 of that. Like her husband, Angie Keith had a procedure called the gastric sleeve performed by bariatric surgeon Dr. Lanny Gore.

“The sleeve involves removing about 85 percent of the stomach,” Gore explained, “leaving a long, narrow stomach about the size of a banana and the shape of a sleeve – thus the name.” While Gore also performs two other surgical weight-loss procedures – gastric banding and gastric bypass – the sleeve has become his procedure of choice. “It simply works better than the others and is simpler to perform,” he said. All three procedures are offered at Baptist Health Floyd – as well as at Baptist Health Louisville in St. Matthews by bariatric surgeon Dr. John Oldham – and there may be times when one over the other is recommended. For example, said Gore, “For patients with severe insulin-dependent diabetes and other multiple medical problems associated with 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

LIFE

obesity, I might recommend bypass because it’s better at resolving insulin-dependent diabetes.” However, he said, gastric bypass has some complications associated with it. Bypass is the technique of stapling the stomach, thus keeping foods from being completely absorbed. “Because of this malabsorption, some patients may be susceptible to malnutrition and vitamin deficiency – or more susceptible to ulcers – so it’s important for them not to smoke or take steroids or ibuprofen (Advil, Aleve, Motrin), and to be monitored for those things.” At the end of the day, though, he said, “No bridges are burned. The patient can have a sleeve and, if there’s not enough weight loss, can be converted to a bypass.”

LESS GHRELIN The sleeve not only reduces the size of the stomach, it also changes some of the hunger hormones in the body. “A hormone called ghrelin is secreted by stomach tissue, signaling to the brain that you’re hungry,” Gore said. “If you have less stomach, you have less ghrelin. That adds to the weight-loss success. You’re less hungry and have less of a drive to eat.” Surprisingly, eating less is only one of the objectives. Another is getting patients off their medications. “Certain medications that treat diabetes, heart disease, depression and anxiety actually put on weight,” said Gore. “Insulin, for example, causes weight gain.”

NO MAGIC BULLET So did Keith simply show up on the morning of the procedure and walk out with a smaller stomach and less hunger-signaling hormones, off her meds, on her way to an easy 90-pound loss? Not even close. There’s nothing easy about the process. To think of any of these procedures as some kind of a magic bullet that melts all of your excess weight and leaves you model-thin is to vastly underestimate the amount of energy, effort and motivation you have to put into the process. There are challenges that test patients’ determination, willpower and willingness to make lifestyle changes. As Keith herself said, there’s a reason some people are so overweight. Eating has become an obsession with them. An 85 percent-smaller stomach is just the start. “You’re less hungry,” she explained, “but people who are that overweight never before stopped eating just because they felt full. The triggers to eat don’t go away. Your appetite doesn’t go away.” Or, as Gore put it, “After this surgery, you’ll want fewer donuts. But the objective is to eat no donuts.” 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Dr. Lanny Gore.

A NEW MINDSET Keith said it’s all part of the mental process that accompanies the surgery. “Your new mindset becomes that you can enjoy that bite of food without having to eat the whole thing,” she said. “You learn to actually enjoy what you’re putting in your mouth instead of just eating it because it’s there.” She knows this because, prior to surgery, all patients have to undergo an extensive process of monthly seminars, educating themselves about the causes of overeating and obesity. They learn about the value of food and then undergo a period of supervised weight loss with a dietician and nurse. There are also extensive physical and even psychological exams.

What you can expect is to live a healthier, fuller life and get off your medications. Play with your kids. Do your job better. Feel better about yourself. — Dr. Lanny Gore

LIFE

“We want to make sure people understand this is a life-changing process,” said Gore. “The operations are great, but they won’t be successful if lifestyle changes aren’t made.” “Pure diet alone has a 97 percent failure rate,” said Dr. Oldham. “The majority of those ‘Greatest Losers’ gained their weight back.” In fact, even before surgery, Gore likes to see that there’s an understanding of what’s required and some minimal weight-loss progress. These measures aren’t only for the doctor’s sake. “Sometimes, insurance companies won’t pay for the operation if they see the patient is gaining weight during the supervised weight-loss period,” said Gore. Candidates for the surgery also have to undergo a psychological evaluation to see if there are any issues that might interfere with their success – depression, anxiety, stress, bipolar disorder and coping problems.

INSURANCE COVERAGE Some of this also has to do with the elephant that’s always in the medical room: insurance coverage. According to Gore, most insurance companies will only pay based on a patient’s body mass index (BMI), a simple calculation of height and weight. “There generally has to be a BMI of 40 or greater to qualify for coverage,” he said. “Sometimes, they’ll cover a 35 BMI if there are ‘comorbidities’ – other obesity-related health problems.” For context, Gore said that a “normal” BMI is 18.5 to 24.9; “overweight” is 25 to 29.9; and “obese” is more than 30. “If they’re over 40,” he said, “that’s considered ‘morbidly obese.’ ” These numbers must be taken seriously since it often means related diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure or greater-than-average orthopedic issues are at play. “We call it weight-management,” he said, “but it’s really managing all of these medical problems associated with obesity.” Insurance also requires the pre-surgical regimen of education, counseling and examination. Insurance coverage notwithstanding, however, the education and counseling become powerful pillars of success in the weeks and months after surgery. “Getting prepared to change my eating habits was so important,” said Keith. “It’s hard to smell food and know you shouldn’t eat it.” In addition to eating less, post-op patients abide by a rigid program that involves eating certain amounts of vegetables, fruits and proteins.

THE CRAVINGS REMAIN “I can’t think of anything I still don’t crave,” said Keith, two years after her proce14

dure. “But I know that if I take even a bite of bread, it will fill me up. Then I can’t eat the proteins I’m supposed to be having. Since you’re limited to only those little bits, you have to get in the proteins, fruits and vegetables. You won’t have room for the chips and donuts and chocolate. Junk food messes up your system in so many ways.” In the successful procedures, which Gore said far outweigh the unsuccessful ones, a patient can expect to lose 70 percent of his or her excess weight with a sleeve or bypass. But, he said, that’s only a secondary goal. “We’re upfront with people,” he said. “Don’t necessarily expect to get down to

an ideal body weight. What you can expect is to live a healthier, fuller life and get off your medications. Play with your kids. Do your job better. Feel better about yourself.” Angie Keith agreed. “I went from a size 20 to a size 10,” she said. “People who’ve lost a lot of weight know that other people respond differently to you. They’re nicer, friendlier, complimentary. You just want more of that feeling good about yourself.” Now, she said, “I carry myself differently, care more about myself, I’m not exhausted all the time, it’s not upsetting to go out somewhere. I don’t feel I have to hide in the house anymore.” VT 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Second location of NOVA Salon Opens Doors in St. Matthews

OVA Salon officially opened the doors to its second location on June 5 at 4600 Shelbyville Road. This location, named NOVA Salon St. Matthews, is located in the Shelbyville Road Plaza near Joann Fabrics and features 3,500-square-feet of bright, open space with a modern interior and a nod to mid-century style. This design mirrors the award-winning original location, named NOVA Salon Frankfort Avenue, which opened this past January in a renovated, historic facility in the Clifton neighborhood. Louisville entrepreneur Bennie Pollard, who owns the NOVA Salon brand, said his managing partner and lead designer, Lindsay Reeves, will continue to lead operations at both locations. Pollard said clients of the St. Matthews location can expect the same level of world-class excellence and professionalism that are the noted hallmarks of the NOVA Salon brand. Both locations will specialize in an array of hair and makeup services, with an emphasis on advanced hair coloring techniques and education for team members, and both will operate during the same hours: 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday 12-7 p.m. Wednesday 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Friday 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday Closed Sunday and Monday Pollard is a two-time North American Hairstyling Awards (NAHA) recipient with his own full distribution and consulting company, named Cool Beauty Consulting (www.CoolBeautyConsulting.com). He has owned and operated a successful salon for 25 years. His NOVA Salon Frankfort Avenue location was recognized as one of the top five salon designs in the nation by NAHA in 2017, and Salon Today just featured NOVA Salon in the magazine’s Top 20 salons of 2018. Throughout continued growth, Pollard will continue to oversee strategic planning as the owner and CEO of the NOVA Salon brand, and believes a learning culture that focuses on the continuing education of team members is key to sustained success. His corporate principles have become the operational model for other businesses across several states and major cities, with Pollard offering lectures and education classes to other salons, designers and small business owners for more than a decade.

ince opening in 2003, Work the Metal has become Butchertown’s go-to spot for finding the perfect gift for any recipient (this writer recently found amazing gifts for a soon-to-be 3-year-old boy, a 30-year-old friend and a 65-year-old dad). The space that started out at just 400 square feet has now reached a staggering 13,000, with new products and innovations always in the works. On June 3, owners Jack Mathis and Andy Blieden celebrated the store’s 15th anniversary by offering 15 percent off of every purchase for an entire week. Now, they’re adding another reason to love the massive shop: a beverage bar that will serve alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks as well as tasty bites. “It’s a big place and you’ve got a lot to look at,” says Mathis. “The idea is as you’re shopping, you get kind of thirsty, so you can come in and get a glass of wine and sit for a few minutes.” Beverages on tap will include wine, champagne, beer and sodas. The team is also working with local brand Red Hot Roasters to bring coffee to the lineup. For snacks, they’re bringing in a charcuterie tray curated by Scarlet’s Bakery that will pair perfectly with their selection of wine. Bourbon Barrel Foods will provide pimento cheese, beer cheese, chips and a snack mix. Current employees of Work the Metal who have experience bartending or in the dining industry will take the lead on serving and preparing food. Offerings of spirits and snacks will rotate based on the season, with lighter options this summer followed by heavier and more festive flavors in the fall and winter. 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

‘Opening the Closet’ Carpentry exhibit shines light on LGBTQ matters Story by Miranda McDonald Photos by Andrea Hutchinson

Locally, it is the medium one carpenter is utilizing to engage people in a much larger political and social conversation surrounding LGBTQ rights.

The piece not only engages the sense of sight with rich symbolism, but it also demands those viewing it to physically sit and listen to firsthand accounts of personal hardships faced by individuals who are LGBTQ. The artist accomplishes this by playing interviews she collected over a seven-year span on speakers that are built into the shelves. These interviews will also be used in a documentary von Roenn STARTING A CONVERSATION plans to film in the coming years.

For those who are willing to share their greatest fears, there will be small baskets of permanent markers sitting next to the closet so visitors can write those fears on its wooden frame. She sees the hardships faced by every individual as a shared one and hopes her work will convey that in a manner that helps unify her community. “I want us to unite,” von Roenn says. “I want us to pay attention to ourselves and to each other.

HOMES

Backyard Getaways

A look at amazing playhouses, treehouses and more Story by Janice Carter Levitch Photos by Kathryn Harrington Khandro Butler.

emember those hot summer afternoons when you spent the entire day playing in the backyard without a care in the world? Memories of a similar kind are being recreated for the children of four local families, who have crafted amazing backyard fun for their children. From tree houses to swings to gingerbread-style playhouses, these backyards are full of enchantment and possibility. It’s a bit like following the yellow brick road to Oz when you look inside the playhouse that Angela Page and her husband Mitchell designed for their daughter Rylan. It resembles a storybook playhouse, much like the gingerbread house from the well-known fairy tale “Hansel and Gretel.” It’s painted white with a cedar shake roof and a red, Dutch-style front door with the most adorable acorn door knocker – another reminder of being outside nestled under the trees. “We wanted a cute house for our daughter and found it on Craigslist,” Angela said. “It was yellow, but we painted it white, repaired the cedar shake roof, doors and windows, and my husband built two Dutch-style doors for it.” Once you step inside this adorable playhouse, you find a miniature kitchen with all the essential make-believe appliances and accessories. A ladder to one side leads up to a tiny loft loaded with books and comfy pillows. It is a perfect spot to perch and read for hours on end. “It has been so fun to watch her grow up in her playhouse,” Angela commented. “She has set up lots of pretend bake

sales, smoothie shops and pet shops.” The family also has a pétanque court nearby, where the adults and children can enjoy this French game that originated around 1907. The game is played on a well-groomed dirt or gravel court with heavy steel balls (“boules” in French). The object is to keep your feet on the ground while standing inside a circle and rolling or tossing a boule as close as possible to the smaller, wooden ball called a cochonnet (which literally means “piglet”). The player or team with the boules closest to the cochonnet wins the round. Angela and Mitchell are fond of the game and have the perfect lawn area near the playhouse to accommodate it. They love that they can enjoy time with their daughter while she plays outside. “It’s nice to have her close when we play pétanque,” Mitchell commented. Randy and Marrzulena Butler have a unique playground for their 10-year-old daughter Khandro. Situated in a cozy spot in their backyard is a wooden swing made by Khandro’s paternal grandfather. “In the early ’90s, my father was hunting on our family land located in the Southern Alabama river swamps,” Randy said. “He noticed an old cypress log sticking out of the mud. He suspected that it was a ‘sinker cypress’ log that was cut in the 1800s that was missed by the logging crew. His intuition was not only correct about that one log, but as he probed the mud with a long pole, he located many other sinker logs that remained buried in the mud ever since they were cut. I have used it to line the ceiling 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

on my screened in porch at our home in Louisville. My brother has used it in his office in Mobile, Alabama. My father and I built a family chapel located on our property completely out of the wood. My parents have used it in their home and my father has made swing sets and birdhouses of out it, and that is the swing Khandro has grown up swinging on.” “We have many great memories from her birthday parties, grilling out, watching the kids swing, slide and play in the sandbox, too,” Marrzulena said. Khandro is carefree as she swings. “I like going out there on a sunny day with my friends to swing on the swing set and run around,” says Khandro. Randy commented, “I like the playground because when she was little, she spent so much time out there, and I didn’t have to drive her anywhere. Her friends loved coming over and playing even though our playground is not very fancy. Perhaps my fondest memory though was teaching Khandro math problems in the sandbox. (I created) plastic cup impressions in the sand and divided them up between us. We have great memories and she still uses the playground at 10 years old.” For their son, Kirt Jacobs and his wife Cynthia Fanning decided on a greenhouse/ playhouse along with a jungle gym-style playground. Enclosed with a tall, wooden fence for privacy, their son can spend hours enjoying the sandbox and ziplining. Previously a greenhouse and small vegetable garden, this Highlands space was transformed into a more 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

playful area for their boy, who is now six. “We wanted a safe and spur-of-the-moment place for him to get outside every day,” says Kirt. “The zip-line, monkey bars, climbing wall and firepole were all inspired by a vision for an American Ninja Warrior-like space, albeit smaller and a bit less competitive.” “We wanted a space that would grow up with him,” says Cynthia. “He started out loving the sandbox and the playhouse complete with a kitchen and workbench. Now his favorites are the climbing wall and monkey bars. We all love to hang out in the park, too.” Kelly Will and her husband Matt Linville built the ultimate treehouse in their backyard for several reasons. Three of those reasons are their daughters, who are nine, eight and five years old. “Essentially, the tree house came about because we had small children and it was easier to make a fun space for them in the backyard than to have to pack them up and take them to a park,” Kelly explained. “It also gave us a great area where our friends could come with their kids and we could turn them loose. We could actually have some adult conversation without trying to keep a batch of small kids tame at a restaurant.” The three girls all agree and said, “We love having a place to hang upside down and make a fort.” Kelly also commented, “It’s definitely helped make them all a little fearless. When you learn to jump out of a tree and go down a zip line when you’re three, there’s not much that will scare you.” VT

Cancer is funny. Everybody shrinks from it, they whisper it, they’re afraid of it. It’s not contagious – it’s just cancer. — Anoosh Shariat

Louisville restaurateur Anoosh Shariat doesn’t plan to let his recent diagnosis affect how he lives. Story by Steve Kaufman Photos by Andrea Hutchinson

noosh Shariat sat down at his Brownsboro Road restaurant last week to reveal that he has been diagnosed with cancer. The disease is never something to be glib about. But Anoosh (it’s always “Anoosh” – how many people in Louisville know him by any other name?) has turned a cancer diagnosis into an upbeat, positive, life-affirming experience. Anyone who knows Anoosh knows that this is exactly how he lived his life before the diagnosis: smiling, positive and a believer in healthy eating and other good habits. Anoosh and his wife, Paula Barmore, have been vegan for years. He uses only outstanding ingredients in his restaurant and in his home, practices Tai Chi and hosts a monthly “Compassion & Cooking” breakfast with his personal trainer, Carlos Rivas, director of fitness and wellness operations at Proformance Health and Wellbeing.

NO TEARS Word may have previously leaked about Anoosh’s condition. He has now officially come out with the news (although he declined to talk about the type of cancer he is dealing with or the prognosis for this story). But don’t cry for him, Kentuckiana. He still runs two thriving restaurants with plans for a third – or more – and still caters practically every charitable event in town. (A partial list includes Families for Effective Autism Treatment [FEAT], The Healing Place, Court Appointed Special Advocates [CASA], March of Dimes, the Multiple Sclerosis Gala, Denim and Diamonds for the Parkinson’s Support Center and Bourbon & Bowties for Norton Children’s Hospital.) Has this recent development changed his life? Well, he now takes a day off now and then. In fact, part of his announcement was that Mark Ford, his chef de cuisine at Anoosh Bistro, will take over as day-to-day head chef. Ford, a Sullivan University graduate, started his career with Anoosh at Browning’s and Park Place before moving on to Louisville Country Club and St. Charles Exchange. He rejoined Anoosh earlier this year.

“Mark has exactly the same philosophy about the guest experience as I have,” Anoosh said. “Besides, I’m 60 now, and I was looking to pass the baton. It’s a good time to transition.” He has dinner with Paula at home more often rather than working until midnight, which is good for her. “I would always just throw a sweet potato in the Instant Pot or something,” she admitted. The pair has been together for 12 years. Before they got together, the recently-divorced Paula actually fixed up the recently-divorced Anoosh with one of her friends. “My friend and Anoosh did not have any connection,” she recalled. “I sent him flowers the next day, he asked me out and we’ve been together since.” Regular trips to the Norton Cancer Institute for chemotherapy are now part of his regular routine. But he also had a port inserted in his chest and walks around with chemo and immunotherapy pumping through his system. “It keeps me ambulatory, able to work and to get around, and to be with friends I didn’t always have time for before,” he says. He spends more time with their blended family of five children and two grandchildren. He shook his head when he thought of the parties and events – even his own kids’ graduations – he previously missed because he was always working. “Life is for living,” says the man whose slogan is, “Eat Well, Love Life.”

ITALIAN HOSTAGE SITUATION Like a lot of Iranian restaurateurs in Louisville, Anoosh came to the U.S. to study engineering in the late 1970s. He then became isolated here when the Iranian hostage crisis of 1979-81 led to his family’s funds being frozen. To earn money for school, Anoosh and many of his compatriots worked in restaurants – cooking, waiting or bussing. “Iranians weren’t particularly popular in the U.S. then,” he recalled. “The owners of the restaurants would tell customers we were Italians.” The happy result of this includes a number of Louisville staples: Majid’s, Z’s Steakhouse, Saffron’s, Pesto’s, Caspian Grill and every other restaurant Anoosh has owned and operated since he came to Kentucky from Texas in 1988. He was executive chef at Remington’s, then ran Shariat’s, Browning’s and Park Place at Slugger Field. In 2014, he opened Anoosh Bistro in the Brownsboro Center, a cool and elegant 85-seat space where he resumed his high-end dinner practice. Two years later, he opened a new spot across the parking lot, Noosh Nosh – an inviting breakfast-lunch-all-day restaurant. It’s a casual, come-as-you-are, family place. The brightly colored sign above the door looks like it was made out of Life Savers. But don’t suggest that candy reference to Anoosh or Paula; sugar is something these healthy eaters avoid like the plague. Anoosh has introduced as many healthy options into his menu as possible.

EAT YOUR VEGGIES “I’ve challenged myself in my cooking to put vegetables front and center,” he said. 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Anoosh Shariat with wife Paula Barmore.

His special skill is to make everything as delicious as possible and so, he said, his fire-roasted skillet brussel sprouts “fly out of here.” They’re as popular as his mac-andcheese and French Toast Foster. He also whips up cream and Hollandaise with the best of them, and some of his most popular dishes come with a Pappy Van Winkle maple syrup. At the Bistro, he has vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free items, several tofu dishes and lots of vegetables on his menus. He uses grass-fed beef and goat cheese. He makes mozzarella cheese out of crushed and smoothed almonds and offers soy or almond milk and various real-fruit juices. “I had the first five-course vegetarian menu in the city,” he said proudly. But even non-vegans benefit from his skills. “My claim to fame has always been that you feel satisfied but you won’t need Pepto-Bismol,” he said. “Our food is not covered with multiple fats. Food that’s right – best ingredients, best preparation – doesn’t sit heavy on you for hours afterwards.” However, he’s not a scold nor a proselytizer. “Whatever you want to eat, we’ll give you the best we can give you,” he said, “but we’ll talk to you about better eating if you ask.” Few things make him happier than 30

pleasing his guests. His eyes shone when he talked about the couple that recently came to his Bistro to celebrate their 30th anniversary. “They celebrated their 15th anniversary at Shariat’s,” he said. “And they ordered the same food this time as the last time. “I’m a chef who wants to cook for guests, not for myself,” he continued. “And Mark has that same philosophy about the guest experience.”

AN UNCLUTTERED LIFE “Cancer unclutters your life,” said Paula, who has added “caregiver” to her resumé. “You focus on what’s most important – activities, events, people.” “I take a whole day off now – I never did that before,” Anoosh said. “And when I work, it’s eight hours instead of 12-15 hours.” Having Ford take over will help get him out of the restaurant, but not to lie down. Paula and Anoosh both laugh at the idea that someone with cancer ought to take it easy and get off his feet. “Bad advice!” said Paula. “The new research says, keeping your blood flowing is the most important thing, and keeping your energy up is a must. Exercise is important, but smart exercise – it helps your body heal itself.”

It’s better than medicine, Anoosh insisted. “When people get sick, they stop taking care of themselves because they think medicine will take care of them,” he said. “I think it’s what you eat, how you exercise and how you think.” Sure, there are days when the chemo messes with his stamina – and also with his palate. “But,” he said, “I cook with my eyes and nose. My nose is stronger than my palate.” He will continue to do his charitable catering, though now he understandably has a special place in his heart for the American Cancer Society and for Gilda’s Club, the organization that supports those living with cancer and their caregivers. “I’m not dying of cancer, I’m living with cancer,” he asserted. “Living with cancer, to me, is like living with a heart problem, or just living – period! All the ups and downs we all have.” “The perception is (that) life has ended,” said Paula. “It hasn’t! Anoosh has an awesome attitude. Now, if he’d been in a plane crash – yes, that would have been a life-ending diagnosis.” “Cancer is funny,” said Anoosh. “Everybody shrinks from it, they whisper it, they’re afraid of it. It’s not contagious – it’s just cancer.” VT 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Your Voice:

Dad Love

rowing up, I never looked forward to Father’s Day. It’s not that I dreaded it; it was just another day with another homemade card or useless gift that would be stored away in the master bedroom closet, never to be seen again. I’ve always been told that he loved me the best way he knew how. But as a kid, not understanding all of the complexities, that was somehow never enough. At 16, after a nasty divorce, there was a new reminder that my family dynamic had never been normal, and I was lacking something. I never thought I would know the love of a father until my mom met Scott. I remember telling her that he looked like Santa Claus – his hair white and his eyes smiling. I was skeptical and a rebellious, angry kid who needed someone to love every flaw and gift I had. He was patient, and he knew it would take me some time to trust him. But he chose, and still chooses every day, to love my sister and I like his own. He chooses to love our own children and teach them the good stuff, like the messiest way to eat a fudge pop or how to rake a pile of leaves to jump into. With every card he signs, “Love, Dad.” I know that he will continue to choose us. “It’s a love without end, amen.” –Cammie Rickson

In honor of Father’s Day, we asked members of the community to share why they are proud of the father figures in their lives.

y father is a man of routine. I know when I come home that his lawn has been mowed and the seats around his fire pit are surrounded by well-groomed trees in the middle of his sanctuaried garden. He’s carved out a little piece of heaven for himself on a busy street. The older I grow the more impressed I am with that kind of consistency – the kind of steadiness that allowed three girls to commit to their education, become women of substance and still come home to feel like children in their own backyard. –Meredith McCann

red Kline, the man I’m fortunate enough to call my father, was a full time truck driver for 32 years. He would work around 70 hours a week, always at night, leaving around 8 p.m. and returning the next day around 10 a.m. Between working and maintaining the house I grew up in, he would often only sleep around four or five hours a day before going back and doing it all again. However, he never complained and he genuinely enjoyed his job. He was consistently warm and rarely grumpy despite how little sleep he got. Fred retired in October 2017 and has taken on a new role as homemaker since my mom still works full time. He cooks three meals a day, does the laundry and takes care of their two dogs. He goes above and beyond for his friends and neighbors – often shoveling sidewalks,

chopping down trees or doing other major tasks for those who need a hand. Though he just turned 65 last week, you would never know it based on his energy level (especially since he can run faster than me or my brother ever could). I’m incredibly proud to be Fred’s daughter. He sacrificed so much so that my family could have a comfortable life, but what I’m most proud of is the example he set for how to treat others. He’s always been kind and generous to everyone he meets, and now that he’s retired, he has even more time to spread that kindness and generosity. –Mariah Kline

y veteran father has been married for 33 years and raised six children. I cannot think of a single time he raised his voice at us. He exercises patience and compassion in all of his relationships, and it is impossible not to feel comfortable around him. He worked long hours to provide for our family growing up, but even after retirement, he continues to dedicate all of

his time to helping and caring for others. He’s a brilliant, kind-hearted and hilarious man, and the older I get the more I appreciate how his personality has shaped my own. I love you, Dad! –Lydia Tharp

y stepfather always referred to me as his daughter and has treated me as his own. He welcomed me to live with him and my mom when I faced hard times and has never hesitated to help me financially, emotionally and beyond. He’s been a gift from God for my family. We couldn’t imagine our lives without Blake Brittain! –Natalie Smith

N The Last Partyline

Go-Round By Carla Sue Broecker

earing the end of our cruise on the Regent Seven Seas Voyager that began on Dec. 29, 2017, we left Mumbai for a whole day at sea. It wasn’t wasted, however. We spent the day organizing clothes and starting to pack since we would be disembarking in a few days. We realized while in Mumbai that we were going to need another suitcase. Our bathtub – which we used for storing souvenirs – was pretty full, and we needed the separate shower for its intended purpose. Following the sea day, we sailed into Muscat, Oman. It is a place we have enjoyed before, but we were looking forward to refreshing our old memories. We took a “Splendors of Muscat” shore excursion to see many traditional sites. The tour started off at the Bait Adam Private Museum, which is a small museum with lots of artifacts. The entryway doors were most unusual and probably the most interesting part of the whole place. Always willing to be a supporter of gift shops of every sort and description, I found the one at this stop to

be way short of interesting or exciting. Dusty is a word that comes to mind and seems the most appropriate. Our next stop, the beautiful Zawawi Mosque, should definitely be near the top of any list of interesting sites in Oman. It was built by the son of Abdul Zawawi to commemorate his father and was completed in 1995. We did not get to go in but had a generous photo stop with lots of sunshine to make the site even more splendid. The Mutrah Souq was our next stop, and there was plenty of time for shopping. However, we held back our retail urge because we knew the mammoth-sized Dubai Souq was coming up the next day. In the mid-afternoon, we headed back to the ship to do more packing and get ready for a special private dinner that the ship’s social director was hosting. What was even more special was that we were invited to sit with her at her table. Before dinner, there was a special show called Krew Kapers. It is put on by members of the crew from all the various departments from housekeeping to laundry. Those that participate rehearse in the wee hours of the morning and are really quite sweet and talented. Maybe not quite ready for Broadway, but it is fun to see your cabin steward and favorite dining room server singing on stage and doing traditional dances from their native countries. Not all of the staff members perform, but some 45 countries are represented in the crew, so there was quite a lot of diversity in the entertainment. Following Krew Kapers, we were off to the cruise director’s invitation-only dinner. It was held in a private part of the dining room on Deck 11, which is usually closed in the evening. When we arrived as expected, the doors were closed. When we opened them to walk in, there was a thunderous round of applause from the entire entertainment company waiting inside. We were astounded to find that the special dinner was being held in our honor! Wow! We had made friends with most of the entertainers and had at times invited them to join us for dinner in the Compass Rose Dining Room, where they are only allowed to go on invitation from guests. This was a wonder-

ful and charming payback that we enjoyed thoroughly. Before dinner was over, some friends dropped by to say hello: the ship’s general manager, Masimo, Capt. Daniel Green, several of the dining room managers and our friend Marla Sanders, who was the social hostess we enjoyed so much. Needless to say, we were very touched since nothing like this had ever been done for passengers before. We went off to bed very happy knowing that it was the last full night of sleep we were going to get on board the Voyager for a long time. The next day, we arrived in Dubai. The plan was to spend the morning finishing our packing and the afternoon on our very last shore excursion. We would be up early the following morning, at 3:30 to be exact, to catch our plane home. Dubai, which is part of the United Arab Emirates, is a bustling cosmopolitan metropolis. In the last few years, the city has attracted worldwide attention through many innovative large construction projects. The Burj Al Arab, a spectacular hotel with astounding rates, is no longer the tallest building in Dubai. It was superseded in 2010 by the Burj Khalifa or Burj Dubai, which stands at 828 meters or 2,716 feet tall – more than half a mile! But it will soon be outdone by a 1,000-meter building now under construction near the Dubai Creek, a soon to be UNESCO World Heritage Site. Then, there is the Atlantis Hotel at the Palm Dubai. Constructed from reclaimed land and built in the shape of a palm, it is best seen and appreciated from the air. After packing and having lunch, we set out on our “Discover Dubai” excursion, which started with a drive to Jumeirah Mosque, a spectacular honey-colored stone mosque. We did a brief photo stop and then moved on to a photo stop outside of the previously mentioned Burj Al Arab hotel. We were there some years ago for tea. Now, tourists without a reservation are not welcome and it is extremely “high end.” No visit to Dubai is complete without a visit to the Dubai Museum, which is constructed inside an old fort. Visitors walk down a circular ramp under the fort to see many scenes of ancient life in the area before it became so grand. We then continued on to Abra Station on the banks of Dubai Creek, the waterway that divides the city. We took an opentopped ferry boat to the other side of the creek to visit the gold and spice souk. It is a wild and busy open market with more gold jewelry than you could imagine. Also, there

were lots of spices – including frankincense and myrrh just like the Wise Men carried to Bethlehem – and mountainous piles of saffron. After this sensory overload, we climbed into our delightfully cool coach and headed for the pier to get ready for our last dinner. Our final chore was to sit all six of our packed suitcases out in the hall beside our door. They were picked up by members of the crew and taken to the ship’s hold to be unloaded early the next morning into the terminal. There, they were sorted by colored tags so they could easily be claimed and taken through immigration and customs. We decided to indulge ourselves and come home on Emirates Air in business class. The service was on an Airbus A380, which is a double decker airplane and extremely new. The plane has two boarding ramps, one for the top deck and one below. In business class the seats beside the windows are single seats, while couples traveling together have two side by side seats down the middle. The food was out of sight and the service exceptional. Already tired, we then changed planes in New York and flew to Charlotte to catch a plane to good old SDF, arriving at midnight. It was nice to be home. We had a good time and were surprised to figure out that on the ship, we had travelled 35,473 land miles and visited 69 separate ports. Though we’ve only been home a short time, we are already looking forward to boarding the Seven Seas Navigator on Jan. 4, 2019 for a world cruise leaving Los Angeles and returning to New York 131 days later.

here is something so energizing about New York City. Every time I visit the Big Apple, it stimulates an energy and creativity within me like nothing else does. From the moment I board the airplane, the excitement begins. Flying into LaGuardia Airport reminds me of a circus: the people, the noise and so much going on. You never know what you’re going to see or encounter as soon as you step off the plane. It’s currently under a mammoth renovation, which will include a sky-high new addition to part of the terminal. Luckily, my flight landed at 8 a.m. on a Saturday morning, and I discovered that there are moments when the city that never sleeps actually does adopt a slower pace. Minus the busyness of the construction going on, this was one of those rare moments. But let’s back up to checking in at the ticket counter to board the plane, which I had to do in order to check my luggage. Now, when your flight departs at

6 a.m. on a Saturday, you have a tendency to think that no one else will have the same idea as you; depart early and get to your destination so the entire day is open for sightseeing and other fun things. However, as soon as I walked through the front doors of the airport, I realized I was wrong and witnessed a mob scene. It was as though everyone in the city decided to get on this flight. Once I reached the counter and talked with the agent checking me in, she informed me the flight was closed. Apparently, the airline was understaffed on this particular morning and I wasn’t the only one in this situation. However, I still began to cry. Tears kept flowing and of course, I had no tissue, which added to the misery and comedy of the moment. The agent informed me that if I ran to the gate, I just might make it. In my spiffy, New York-appropriate, platform sandals, I ran my heart out. Of all the mornings to not wear my workout clothes and shoes, it had to be this one. Off I went, running through the airport to the gate, winded and desperate. I prayed 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

SOCIETY

I’d get to the gate without collapsing into a heap of mush. I’m a walker, not a runner, and this wasn’t pretty. Someday, just for kicks, I would like to request a copy of the airport security camera video just so I can get the same laugh the entire airport must have had as they watched me get to the gate on time. Thankfully, I made it. It was a direct flight, so that meant a two-hour nap for me. The seat next to me was empty and after takeoff, I attempted to lay down. Feeling like a contortionist fitting into a suitcase, I was able to fold myself up and sleep. Yes, I know, it’s another part of the comedy

that launched this trip. Evidently, my luggage was a bit shy about showing up on time and chose another route to New York, skipping over LaGuardia Airport completely. Who knows, maybe she needed an espresso to prepare for the over-scheduled weekend I had planned. After reporting the missing luggage (or should I say “delayed” as the airlines refer to mishandled bags) that had most of my essentials packed inside it, I headed toward the exit sign directing me to ground transportation. After grieving over my “delayed” luggage I decided to splurge for a taxi ride, which costs about the same amount as a new pair of shoes, depending on where you shop. But I figured there had to be a Target close to my hotel where I could feel at home and find everything I needed. Fancy traveler indeed. Once my rough beginning was behind me, it was on to the fun part. One of my favorite things to do in New York is go to the theater. “Angels in America” on Broadway is currently playing at the Neil Simon Theatre and it was marvelous. It currently 0 6 . 1 4 . 2 0 1 8 V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

stars Nathan Lane as Roy M. Cohn and Beth Malone as the Angel. I’ve seen the production at Actors Theatre in Louisville, and this was a wonderful opportunity to see it on Broadway. After the performance, I caught up with Beth Malone. “It’s such a pleasure meeting the fans,” she commented. “Being the Angel is pretty awesome and requires a lot of physical agility. The wings are so huge that they are actually carried by other performers dressed in black as I move around the stage.” She has a smile that lights up the room. In addition to “Angels in America” she is also the author and star of the critically-acclaimed onewoman show “Beth Malone: So Far.” Next on the itinerary was dinner. My good friend David from One Kings Lane recommended La Mercerie, which is located inside Roman and Williams Guild in Soho. As you are seated, the hostess lights a tall, grey candlestick. I learned that the clever idea behind this candle is that by the time you are finished dining, the candle is also gone. The meal was delicious and started off with a cheese board and ended with profiteroles smothered in the best chocolate I’ve ever tasted. The next day, I headed to The Met on Fifth Avenue to experience the current exhibit, “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.” This show features the work of designers who, for the most part, were raised in the Roman Catholic tradition. It explores how the Catholic imagination has shaped the creativity of the designers and how it is conveyed through their narrative impulses, beginning in the Byzantine and Medieval art galleries and continuing in the Anna Wintour Costume Center. The visual elements of each design are astounding, and one after another is an incredible work of art. Music surrounds you as you move through the exhibit, elevating the experience – as if you are walking the runway but the fashions stand still. This exhibit actually moved me to tears it is so beautifully curated. From the original Coco Chanel cuff bracelets by Verdura to each garment full of meticulous detail, every single piece was a showstopper. Departing New York is always difficult because there’s just so much to do there, but I have to admit, it’s great to get back to Louisville. Our community offers a great quality of life and continues to impress me with everything from our arts community to the growing Nulu and downtown area. There’s definitely no place like home. VT

BRICKLEY, ROBERT BURCH “BOB” Robert Burch “Bob” Brickley, 66, died at his home on May 1, 2018. Bob was known to many as an agent and Robert Burch Brickey producer for Triangle Talent, where he worked for more than 30 years. But, long before he booked and produced talent, Bob was a musician and entertainer himself. His musical career began around 1967 with a variety of bands including Exit, Parade, the Vanguards, Ever After, Copperfield, The Bob Brickley Band and Heat. Bob was a great singer with an

incredible stage presence, which also helped him to recognize talent in others. He had an exceptional eye for talent and was instrumental in the early careers of Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, Blake Shelton, Toby Keith and dozens of other music stars. He will be remembered as kind, gentle and always smiling. Bob attended Atherton High School in Louisville, Kentucky, and graduated from Wentworth Military Academy in Lexington, Missouri. He was a member of Holy Spirit Church and a Kentucky Colonel. He was preceded in death by his father, Darrell Barrickman; mother, Betty Burch Brickley Yates; grandparents, Chester W. Brickley and Emilie Mae “Mom” Burch Brickley; cousins, Betty Ann Burch Alvey (Claude) and Ormond Hunter Burch Marion (Joe). Bob’s

grandmother played a major role in his life and she shared this poem with him many years ago: “This is the beginning of a new day. God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good. What I do today is important, because I am exchanging a day of my life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a gain not loss, good not evil, success not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price ‘I’ paid for it.” Bob is survived by his brother, Ray Barrickman; niece, Taylor Ray Barrickman; and longtime friends, Stephen Bowles and June Downs, all of Louisville. He is also survived by his cousins, Ann Elizabeth Alvey Triplett (Hank), Samuel S. Alvey (Nancy) and James P. Alvey (Peggy) of Louisville and Francis C. Alvey Jr. (Linda) of Knoxville, Tennessee. The family held a public memorial service to celebrate Bob’s life on June 1 at Pearson’s, 149 Breckenridge Lane, Louisville. Donations may be made in Bob’s name to the Louisville Musicians Emergency Relief Fund. MERF Foundation, 6916 Chimney Hill Road, Crestwood, KY 40014 or online at: www.merflouisville. com.

LAKE, VIVIANNE O. Vivianne O. Lake, 84, died peacefully at home in Naples, Florida on May 30. A native of Vivianne Lake Guadalajara, Mexico, Vivianne was educated at l’Ecole Française, Notre Dame

de Sion and the University of Kansas City. She and Charles, her beloved husband of 50 years, lived most of their married life in Louisville, Kentucky, where Charles was chief legal counsel for GE Appliance Park. Vivianne was active in the community, serving on numerous boards including the American Red Cross Louisville Chapter, Children’s Hospital Foundation, the Kentucky Art and Craft Foundation - of which she was a founding board member and chairman of its first Bourbon Ball - the Kentucky Opera and the Speed Art Museum. She also served on the Bellarmine University Women’s Council and the Kentuckiana Metroversity Council. Earlier in their married life, Vivianne served on the boards of Syracuse Memorial Hospital, the Syracuse Symphony and the Everson Museum of Art. Over the years, Vivianne and Charles made many lifelong friendships through their memberships at the Corinthian, Larchmont, Willow Banks and Naples Yacht Clubs as well as the Onondaga Country Club, Cavalry Club and the Louisville Boat Club. Vivianne was an avid tennis player, golfer and skier, and she loved sailing with Charles in the Virgin Islands and up the New England coast to Nantucket, where they summered for many years. Vivianne was known for her warmth, grace and elegance, and her generosity of spirit brought sunshine into the lives of many. She cherished her friendships and she will be dearly missed. Vivianne is survived by her loving daughter Vivianne of New York City and an extended family in Mexico, with whom she remained close her entire life. A memorial service will be held in Naples, Florida in the fall. She will be interred with Charles at Arlington National Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, gifts in her memory may be made to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, ATTN: Emily Carter, 885 Second Ave., 7th Fl.
