Women On The Move

A Note from Michele Ervin

Chicago Building Community Relationships

These are pics from the 6/10/11 Arlington Heights Park District Picnic in the park. This community branding event was a big hit for the Palatine and Schaumburg delis.  Every mom, dad, and kid were raving about how great Jasons Deli is. The nice weather brought out over 2,200 people.



A Great Story!

Here is a great story about one of our restaurant professionals, Ms. Sarah Volker.  Several days ago she was in the dining room of our Oaklawn – Chicago deli and noticed one of our guests in desperate need – a choking victim. Her quick response in performing the Heimlich maneuver probably saved the life of this precious human being.

Sarah, we are all so very proud of this heroic deed.  You have set a wonderful example for all of us to be vigilant about the safety of the people we serve!

You are a true Servant Leader.

May God continue to bless you.


Joe V. Tortorice, Jr.

President
