LOL....Mary, this is so funny now. Cybersleuthing?....I'd say more like cybergoofing...lol. And I can say without a doubt that I don't have any skills that could be characterized at "incredible". (I wish!) I am very curious about things, (or maybe nosey?), and I go searching around, and sometimes I get lucky. I wouldn't have known the mayor of Peoria except that I had stumbled upon a picture of him from the event.
After the parkway dedication I was searching around hoping to find some other videos or articles. Dan's mom was so sweet and interesting to listen to, I really wanted to hear more from her. I thought for sure there would be more video of the event somewhere. I actually didn't find much, but I did come across a couple of blog posts, including this one with a photo and caption: http://katearch1978.blogpeoria.com/2008/09/10/a-week-of-celebrating-dan-fogelburg/
The guy second from the right looks like the man in the video to me, and his name was listed, so I just seached his name, and it turns out he's the mayor. Makes sense he would be there: http://www.ci.peoria.il.us/mayors-office
Anyway, when you mentioned Dan's brother, I had to go look at the video again to see who else was behind her. And that's really what's funny about this...lol. Since I knew the man behind her wasn't Marc, I focused on the man behind HIM. I actually thought you knew what Marc looked like, and had recognized him in the video. So I got it in my head that the "incognito guy" with the hat and shades must be Marc...lol. He looks like a cool guy, trying not to be noticed, and about the right age. Marc has to be at least 60, probably 61, right? (oh yeah, and that's another thing - didn't you think the mayor guy looked a little young to be Dan's older brother?) Oh well....I just hope we didn't confuse anyone else. I guess we're both a couple of goofballs on this one....lol.
So, I hope this sets things straight. 'Cause we all know a little misinformation can go a long way sometimes. There's probably someone out there now who's been reading bits & pieces of our posts and stirring it up in their head, and is convinced now that Dan's brother IS the mayor of Peoria.....lol. (But let's hope not...)
