Strath Haven Middle School

The Rose Valley Chorus and Orchestra (RVCO) opened its spring show, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, April 18 at Strath Haven Middle School, 200 S. Providence Road, Wallingford PA. The show continues through April 26. 
The cast, led by&nbsp;Stage Director Chris Fitting, was lively and playful. &nbsp;The 24-piece orchestra, under the baton of Music Director, Florrie Marks, provided a lush full sound, and the dancing, choreographed by Caity Moon, was energetic and entertaining. 
While How to Succeed, which made its Broadway debut in 1961, may seem outdated with its stereotypical portrayal of male bosses and female secretaries, but Fitting and the players did a great job of poking fun of office life in the late ‘50 and early '60s. This Tony Award-winning musical, with its score by Frank Loesser, includes memorable numbers including the comical "Coffee Break," the energetic "Brotherhood of Man" and the ballad, "I Believe In You." Its witty book, by Abe Burrows, Jack Weinstock and Willie Gilbert, earned the 1962 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and was based on a book by Shepherd Mead. 
The parts were well cast, with principal leads Chris Rubino as J. Pierrepont Finch and Allie Beik as Rosemary Pilkington leading the way. Excellent singers are a hallmark of RVCO shows, and this musical was no exception. Rubino’s delivery of the well-known song, “I Believe in You” was beautiful as was Beik’s reprise of the song. 
Other notable performances included Jeff Swafford as bombastic J.B. Biggley; Donna Winquist as the sexy, naive Hedy LaRue; and Aaron Kirschner as the annoyingly feckless Bud Frump. Long-time member and nonagenarian, Alfred Hurd, used his mellifluous and distinguished voice to narrate the business handbook Finch uses to learn all the tricks of the trade. The men’s ensemble, and Andrea Broido as Miss Jones, did a fantastic job with the rousing number, “Brotherhood of Man,” and the women’s ensemble made the most of the clever bit in “Paris Original.” 
Ellen Kecskemethy Tillman’s costumes, and some ladies with beehive hairdos, took the audience right back to the 1950s. The creative set design by Mark Teseny was well handled&nbsp;by the stage crew staff, including the frequent use of elevator doors. 
Shows continue Wednesday, April 22 at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, April 25 at 2 p.m. and&nbsp;7:30 p.m.; and Sunday, April 26 at 2 p.m. Tickets can be purchased online at <a href="https://www.rvco.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.rvco.org/</a> or purchased at the door with cash, check, or a credit card. Seating is general. For more information, call 484-981-9108.

Great American Pub Phoenixville

Mark Chiappone, age 55, passed away on January 17, 2026 in Miami, FL. Born on May 3, 1970 in Norristown, PA, to parents Donald and Phylis Chiappone Francis, Mark spent most of his childhood in PA, graduating from Great Valley High School, Malvern, PA in 1989 .Determined to be a marine biologist from the age of 11, Mark earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Marine Science and Biology from the U. of Miami in 1991, and subsequently a Master of Science in Marine Biology from Nova Southeastern U., Ft. Lauderdale, FL in 2000, as well as graduate certificates in his field from the U. of Florida. 
Throughout Mark’s career with The Nature Conservancy, The Center for Marine Science, UNC at Wilmington, Key Largo, FL, The U. of Miami, The National Coral Reef Institute, and for 7 years as an adjunct professor in Mathematics and Oceanography, then 19 years as a Senior Associate Professor of Biology and Oceanography at Miami-Dade College, Homestead Campus, he never lost his love of the ocean or his passion and persistence to protect marine life, particularly coral reefs.He loved sharing that passion and knowledge with his students and anyone else who would listen.
Mark dedicated over 12 years of service as a volunteer with the U.S. Coast Guard out of Coral Gables, FL, contributing thousands of hours to Search and Rescue, Environmental support and boat crew training. His passion for teaching was an integral part of educating boaters throughout Miami-Dade County.
While he had a deep love and dedication to his work, Mark loved his family above all. And nothing meant more to him than his boys. Being their father was his greatest blessing and his proudest role.
Mark is survived by his sons, Dominic Conrad and John Paul, their mother, Lina Lopez; his mother, Phyl Francis; his sister, Holly Altemose (Lance) and niece Alexandra Altemose; his Aunt,Tracie Carpenter; his cousin, Joshua Carpenter; and his cousins, Sarah Herrmann and Rebekah Batot. 
He was predeceased by his father, Don Chiappone (2010); his stepfather, Bud Francis (2006); his cousin, Jeremy Lackey (2006); and his uncle and aunt, Jim (2001) and Rosemarie (2017) Herrmann. 
A Celebration of Life Open House will be held on May 3rd
from 1-4 pm at the Great American Pub, 148 Bridge Street in Phoenixville, and we will share light fare.
