The Eyes of Texas Are Upon. . . Fan

(Addison, Texas) Sunday, April 26th Fan hosted a House Party Campaign Event. It was quite a crowd and it was filmed by Zeal Films of San Diego for inclusion in their documentary, Over 90, being prepared for distribution on PBS. The documentary will focus on distinguished Americans over 90 years of age who are making significant contributions to our society.

The buzz is building as the campaign moves into its final push. Channel 33 and Channel 11 were there to cover the event and Fan spoke with News/Talk 820 WBAP later that night.

Fan, who was Ms.Texas Senior America 2005, was honored to have several of her Ms. Texas Queen sisters serve as hostesses at the party.

Entertainer Richard Barry wowed the crowd of more than 50 persons with his piano and Mary Virginia Tuinstra, Ms. America Senior America 2002, sang a rousing God Bless America. Wow! Can that girl sing or what?!?

Jeff Rich, Fan's campaign treasurer, spoke of Fan as a candidate and his desire to serve her campaign.

Mary Francis Hansen, Director of the Ms. Texas Senior America Pageant and former Ms. Texas Queen spoke about Fan as an extraordinary human.

Karen Woodside told the crowd why Fan is the right councilperson for Addison and why she was voting for Fan.

Syntha West, the current Ms.Texas Senior America Queen, contributed a rousing piano medley culminating with The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You.
