Joey, I received a call from a woman in NYC a few weeks ago who told me was planning to bring her twin sister to Gloucester. Her sister is battling brain cancer and the outlook is not good. She asked if I could assist with getting them an early check-in as it was a long drive here and her sister would be tired. No problem. She also requested a few dining reservations. She mentioned her sister had found My Place by the Sea online and wanted to make sure she could go. I texted Barbara, one of the owners and included the story about how this was a visit I wanted to make memorable. Barbara called me and mentioned that in the off season they are not open on Wednesdays. She immediately mentioned she had told the staff the situation and they all decided they wanted to come in so that she could have that experience. I was blown away!
On Wednesday of this week I dropped them off at Bearskin neck for a noon luncheon. They had a magnificent lunch (lobster carbonara!!) and raved about everything. I want people in the area to know what the proprietors and staff did for this guest. The owners are Kathy Milbury and Barbara Stavropoulos and their incredible team truly made a memorable experience for these women. I am grateful if you can help me let people know about this.
Grateful.
