The residents of The Birches will enjoy the Rock ‘n Roll Ball with entertainer Liz Goss at 2 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 24, at The Birches, 215 55th St., Clarendon Hills. The public is welcome at this free event.
A resident of Naperville, Goss is a singer who loves all genres of music. Frequently, she is a singer with a big band at a local ballroom.
As a small girl she adored dancing and nothing set off her twinkle toes like the June Taylor Dancers on the old Jackie Gleason Show. Dancing changed to singing, and she credits a family who always loved music.
She had a career in middle management, but eventually the daily grind was too much. Around age 50, she quit and made a decision to do only the things she loves.
“Retirement communities are my favorite audiences,” Goss said. “I connect with older people. I love that generation – the old movies, the old music. I was born too late, and I wished I’d been an adult in the ‘30s, ‘40s and ‘50s.”
