We are heartbroken to inform our customers that our beloved colleague, Cherie Towne, passed away July 21 after her courageous battle with cancer.
Cherie worked at Giacomo’s as a bartender and server for 10 years and contributed significantly to the success of the restaurant with her attentive care for her customers and her delightful personality and wit. She loved her customers and developed deep friendships with so many of them.
Her family and close friends are hosting a “Celebration of Life” for Cherie at Giacomo’s Sunday August 23 from 2:00 – 5:00 pm.
