Tomie took us all to see “Billy Elliot: The Musical” on Broadway in June, 2010. Left to Right: Rhoda (Leah’s cousin), Carol, “Miss” Leah. “Miss” Leah was Tomie’s dancing school teacher. Carol was Tomie’s dance partner for over 10 years, I think. “Miss” Leah and Rhoda were older than Tomie and Carol. Tomie and Carol both had some mobility issues. Because a parade in New York City caused traffic delays, “Miss” Leah and Rhoda were running late in getting to the theater. When we spotted them, they were running down the street… in heels. Tomie was thrilled that he could bring them together to see a musical about a boy who liked to dance. A happy, happy day for everyone. (Bob)
