What’s one story about your time at Caramoor that sticks out to you?
Early on as a volunteer, at a Rising Stars Concert, I was told to sit and enjoy the show. I was sitting in my seat with a lovely couple sitting behind me. During the second half of the show, the husband leaned forward and sang softly the words to the love song to his wife. It was a pure magic moment. I was very touched by their love for one another. (And it was a wonderful reminder of the love my husband and I shared.)
The couple turned out to be Adela and Lawrence Elow.
