Charlie Frey
Long-time Johnson Rags member Charlie Frey passed away February 22, 2020. Chuck and Sherry were members of Johnson Rags for over 30 years, dancing as long as Chuck’s health permitted. They are unforgettable for their smiles, laughter and their class. Chuck’s obituary includes a wonderful photo: that is exactly how he looked on the dance floor…smile, tux and all! We send our deepest sympathy to Sherry and the family. A donation has been made in the club’s name to Salvation Army.

Many thanks to Charlotte and Dave McGaw for sponsoring and for all their work planning and organizing Blue Notes NYE. It was a great night for Johnson Rags Dance club!
