She was critically injured, the damages including a fractured spine. Doctors at the Hospital for Joint Diseases at NYU Langone Medical Center surgically implanted two titanium rods to support her vertebral column. Told she might never walk again, nor bear children, she went through excruciating physical therapy, re- turning to the stage 10 months later with a trium- phant international tour. Four years later, she gave birth to her second child, Emily Marie. Today, Estefan is considered one of the world’s best-selling musical artists of all time. Emilio, in addition to his long-lasting marriage to, and creative partnership with, Gloria, has been involved in the careers of everyone from Shakira and Ricky Martin to Jennifer Lopez and Marc An- thony. However, he does not cast aside the hard- ships he has endured, including a point in his life when he was almost homeless.

Gloria and Emilio Estefan answer questions about the history behind their Broadway-bound musical. “Music was the only thing that kept me happy, that kept me alive,” he said. “We live in the greatest country in the world, and we sometimes take our freedoms for granted. In this play, you will see how we worked so hard to get where we are today.” To transform their story into a Broadway mu- sical – it charts some 26 years in their lives, with Gloria aging from 17 to 33 – the Estefans enlisted some of Broadway’s best. Mitchell, the director, took home the 2013 Tony for his choreography for “Kinky Boots,” for which he also was nominated for Best Director. He’s also been involved in shows such as “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown,” “Hairspray,” “The Full Monty,” “The Rocky Horror Show,” “Gyp- sy” “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” and “Legally Blonde.” The book is by Alexander Dinelaris, hot off his Oscar and Golden Globe wins for the screenplay for “Bird- man.” Choreographer Sergio Trujillo has worked on “Memphis,” “Jersey Boys,” “The Addams Family” and “Next to Normal.” Continued on Page 4 THE Page 4 June 4, 2015 Emilio, an affable man of exceedingly good hu- On Your Feet!

That input from the Estefans is something Segar- ra appreciated. “It has been such an honor,” he said of playing Emilio. “I spent so much time with them. I got to know them personally. They are the warmest, kindest, hum- blest people. They put everyone before themselves. “Emilio has to be the pillar of strength (for Glo- ria),” he continued. “His relationship with Gloria grows. They support each other. They have each other’s backs.” Villifañe agreed, saying she and Segarra felt a re- sponsibility to honor who the Estefans are as musi- cians and, most importantly, as people. “We’re very lucky to have had them every step of the way,” she said. “Gloria has been very generous with me. She recommended books to me, music that infl uenced her.” “On Your Feet” also marks a growing trend, from “The Producers” to “Big Fish” to Sting’s “The Last Ana Villafañe and Josh Segarra answer questions from the audience.

After further re- search, it was discovered the parish no longer is in existence; however, there is in the center of Sacred Heart Cemetery a monument erected in 2006 in re- membrance of the parish. It is made of black granite stone in the shape of a stained glass window. There is a laser-etched depiction of the church and the Hungarian coat of arms. The Questers are creating a book for elementary schools on the history of Washington Park’s band- stand. The group just completed restoration on the plaque “Battle of Trail Creek” posted outside Memo- rial Park Lodge on Liberty Trail. Other restoration efforts are in the works, including working with the city park department on the bandstand. The group meets the second Tuesday of each month in the spring and fall.
