Fun fact: Twenty years to the month before Joe and Shando got married, we attended Jennifer Holliday’s 1997 New Year’s Eve performance at Splash Bar. We were oblivious to each other’s presence until a few years ago.  Then, on the drive to the wedding, Joe mentioned this to Brian, Shando’s best man, who Joe had never met before, and he mentioned he was also at the event (with Shando)! To think, we all could have been next to each other without knowing what was to come!
