Next on the agenda ,while guests ate corned beef sandwiches and salads , Shepard pie and Irish Soda Bread, residents Liam and Mary Ellen Ward sang and lead guests in a sing-a-long of Irish tunes,everyone joined the fun.
As guests dined DJ JoDar played a few Irish staples including "When Irish Eyes are Smiling" and "Toora loora loora” as well as background music.

After dessert was served the DJ kicked it up a notch- as i requested, playing many dancable rock’ roll songs.
