Katie, thank you for the many memorable Fridays at Milan's. You always welcome the officers just like brothers. We missed all the wonderful people that came to Milans to dine on your great fish dinners. Milans was the last great place in Glen Park.

Nadine - my condolences to you and your family. I have such great memories at Milan's and how your mother seemed to always be smiling. And she was Katie, not Mrs. Jelovcic! I hope those happy memories will always be in your hearts.
