Community Karaoke
The spirit of Christmas was in the air as karaoke members sang all the popular carols of the season. In his smooth, easy manner, Ken Notorleva joined Essie Hicks singing “Mary Did You Know.” “Jingle Bell Rock” was a spirited choice for Shannon Harrison. “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” was fun for both Erika Greenwood and Sheri Vanek. Another favorite, “Blue Christmas,” was done by David Noble and Ric Dizon. Karen Morris did a joyful “Holly Jolly Christmas.” Gerry Tagaloa’s pick was a hit of Bing Crosby. “Do You Hear What I Hear” is a beautiful hymnsung by BobBarnum.The audience also enjoyed “Silver Bells” sung by Ric Dizon and Susan Kelleghan’s “All I Want for Christmas is You.”
It wasn’t all caroling. Vilma Lina did a BeeGee’s hit. Richard Yokomi sang a nice “Knocking on Heaven’s Door.” Kyung Ju’s “Sound of Silence” was lovely. Carmen Edwards sang a Spanish tune and Pat Paternoster did a sprightly “Sugar Sugar.” Tino Tupas sang a popular “Twilight Time.” Nina Todorov sang the cute “Sealed with a Kiss.” Vito Villamor got the gals dancing with “Elvira.”
The club meets each Wednesday in Clubhouse 1 at 5:30 p.m. The next meetings are on Dec. 21 and 28. New singers and audience members are welcome.
