I am respectfully requesting that the site administrators here allow me to post a seperate thread for this topic, as I feel it should not be overlooked. If this is possible would you kindly delete the redundant info on the thread called Lani Hall Comment, etc. Thank you very much. I would be most pleased if anyone in the Alpert organization or Lani's would kindly inform them about this tribute for her, to be held in Mexico City beginning tomorrow.
Here is the information that Ms. Yazmin Salinas has so generously supplied me with, relating to an annual Lani Hall Festival they have been holding in Mexico City since the year 2000. This year's festival will be held beginning tomorrow Nov.6, 06. It is sponsored by the Albany Park Lani Hall Fan Club in Mexico City. Ms. Karenina Yanez is also involved, and I hope Ms. Yazmin can give us the names of all the great Lani fans who have made this wonderful event possible. Here is the schedule or program:
