Having two teen-age daughters, Cecile and Marie, Mr. Gagnier finds he has his hands full when it comes to dancing. THIS ONE’S FOR DAD Special memories of animated conversations and attempts at ballroom dancing linger in the minds of all those who attended the Annual Father-Daughter Dance. Strengthening the bonds of father-daughter relationships, girls and their dads came together to share thoughts and time with each other. Two, even three girls with one escort? Someone must be kidding! At the Father-Daughter dance, it all depended on how many girls dad had at Feehan. Dear old Dad took each in turn, or sometimes, three at a time! On May 2 and 3, they all crowded into the cafeteria and onto the dance floor. Sounds of laughter and happiness echoed throughout the room. Dads and daughters tried to copy John Travolta’s dance routine, and daughters crushed toes while 12 Father-Daughter Dance Queen for a night, Denise Flaherty and her dad enjoy the royal dance. Hop, hop, hop! Bonnie Gilmore, Vicki Briden, Marie Poirier, Mary-Ellen perfecting the waltz. Eyes blinked and smiles widened as cameras clicked. The fathers looked so distinguished in their suits and the girls so pretty in stylish dresses and gowns and pretty floral bouquets. Dads formed new friendships, and renewed old as daughters chatted and gossiped and sampled refreshments! Excitement stirred when Sister Ricarda Wobby prepared to pull the name of the queen out of a hat. Each girl wondered, ‘‘Who will it Ritzinger, Christine DeCiccio, and Laura Maxwell find the bunny hop can be free strenuous as well as fun. be? Maybe me?”’ Why not? You never know! The lucky girl was Denise Flaherty on Friday night; Michelle Gaudreau was pleasantly surprised on Saturday night. Both were proud to lead the traditional march. Looking back, who could have thought ballroom dancing could be so much fun? But then these were very special nights shared with very important people — our dads!
