JIM MAROUSIS WAS A VERY SUCCESSFUL  BUSINESSMAN IN THE 40'S AND  50'S.
HE STARTED THE GREEN MILL, BUT DIFFERENT NAME.    HE WAS ACTIVE
IN THE LEGION AND WAS A BIG FIGHTER AGAINST POLIO.    WHENEVER HE CAME INTO MY OFFICE, HE DIDN'T ASK FOR PUBLIC SERVICE SPOTS, HE TOLD ME HOW MANY HE WANTED.     GREAT GUY.     WILL NEVER FORGET THE NIGHT HE TOOK NANCY AND I TO A DINNER AT THE GREEK RESTAURANT IN MOLINE OWNED BY HIS BROTHER.
HE TOOK US WITH  HIS CAR, BUT I DROVE.     GREAT GUY.    I LIKED HIS  SON JOHN TOO.   NOW ALSO DECEASED.    SURE WISH THE GREEN MILL WAS STILL
OPEN.

HAVE A NICE WEEKEND.
