Retirement Living TV Network gives Honor to Ms Senior America 2003, Dr Sandra Greco, MD
I was delighted and honored when Sonia Mittelstedt and Felicia French invited me to attend and perform in the Maryland Senior America pageant on August 4, 2006.
When I arrived, Dr. Al Mott told me there was a film crew waiting for me. Retirement Living Network had contacted him to advise that they wanted to do a story on me and my involvement with Senior America. The producer, Tamara Phillips, informed him that they were doing a new television show which launches in New England and Mid-Atlantic on Sept. 5. The show is called "Our Stories" and profiles "seniors living their lives to the fullest." Neither Dr. Mott nor I knew why I was chosen, but were excited to undertake this project.
The four member crew (Debbie, Boots, Dennis, and Matt) were wonderful and filmed and interviewed me for 3 hours. They also spoke with several Senior America personalities including Sonia Mittelstedt, Hope and Wally Heath, and Joyce Reilly Clautice, as well as others. Dr. Mott was also interviewed.
The crew was with us throughout the pageant and had the opportunity to see what a wonderful job all the contestants did, as well as meet the lovely new queen, Mary Watko, and view the excellent talent, including the performance by The Jewels, a vocal trio from Washington, D.C., which includes Sandra Bears, the 2005 Ms. Washington D.C. Senior America.
The crew departed after the pageant, at which time Felicia French, the Maryland director, invited several of us to ride with her in a limo to dinner at a wonderful restaurant in Baltimore. My husband Danny and I were the guests of Sonia and Ed Mittelstedt, and returned to their lovely home on Chesapeake Bay after dinner, where we continued to enjoy the evening.
Needless to say, this Maryland pageant was one of the most exciting and educational experiences I have had with Senior America. I have been told by the Retirement Living Network representatives that the show is to air in early September, and we will be advised as to the date. I know Dr. Mott and all of us look forward to this opportunity of telling people more about Senior America and all we have to offer.
