Idora Park and Marion McCabe

I grew up listening to wonderful stories about Idora Park and dances attended in its ballroom by my mother, Marion McCabe, who is now 80 years old.

The church who owns the park has done a disservice to the community by not restoring and/or selling the park to those who desire its redevelopment.

I am trying to find anyone who might have known my mother. She grew up in Youngstown, near the Boardman line, in St. Dominic's parish, and attended grade school there in the late 20's and early 30's. I'd also like to contact her best friend, Louise Clark, who's father Thomas retired from the Vindicator. He passed away in 1975 - the family's last known address being on Brookline.

Please contact me if you know anything about Louise Clark or if you knew my mother, Marion McCabe. It's time to reunite these two childhood friends.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
Judy Fillio
