Letter to the Herald Mail: Don Wiswell Apr 4, 2012, 6:15 AM to opinion@herald-mail.com, news@herald-mail.com The Playhouse is offering a retrospective on the past many years of providing entertainment to our lovely Tri-State region. A worthy gesture, and deserving of praise. While no stage or page can possibly pay full tribute to the many folks who have made their mark and offered their talents to deserving and grateful area audiences, please allow me to add my humble gratitude and respectful remembrance to those named and unnamed for their contributions, services, and talents through the years. Along with those fine performers listed in the current Playhouse program, and with no disrespect intended to changed names or unfinished lives, please join me in also thanking Jessie Dickey, Dawn Younker, Chas Rittenhouse, Sherry Wyne, the late, great Tod Lofquist, Maria Malkiewicz, Jim Banzhoff, Chris Musser, Al Gardner, Joe Banzhoff, Blake Brown, Vanessa McCambridge, Alfredo Jiminez, Eric Hurd, Charlotte White, Dan Henderson, Gerry McCarney, Penne Vickers, Flo Musser, Shawn Martin, Ray Henderson, Katzi Carver, Jim Middleton, Kim Tantillo, Kelly Jenkins, Earl Moreland, Niki Perini, Bob Hagerman, ...and, of course, my beloved, Susan Young Wiswell. There are so many to thank. For those that I have omitted or lost in my imperfect memory, I wish you all the best. To the patrons that made it all possible, I am forever beholden. Don Wiswell (former owner, Washington Co. Playhouse) And none of this would have been as wonderful without Susan...
