Family friend....from the past!


(Above: Steve with Maria Giomi)

Steve and I generally attend the monthly Vista Guild meetings. The Vista Guild is the neighborhood association for part of downtown Columbia, South Carolina. I am the liaison for Gallery 80808/Vista Studios. Steve is the liaison for CMFA (Columbia Music Festival Association). There's generally a meeting featuring an upcoming event or topic of local interest. There's always familiar faces and new people to meet.

Yesterday was the June meeting and we ran into Maria Giomi, Director of Sales for the brand new SpringHill Suites by Marriott at 511 Lady Street. The last time we say Maria.....well....she was in the sixth grade at St. Peter's Catholic School. She volunteered to sponsor our elder son Mathias at his confirmation! In a sense, her was his Godmother! It is simply shocking that so much time has past.

Isn't that great! And a very nice picture of her and Steve, by the way. You never know when and where you may run into someone.
