MCHENRY NEXT TO FIRE STATION OPEN 7 AM to 10 PM, 7 DAYS A WEEK 385-2042 MARY KANTORSKI STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD Story by Marlene Sagers If "nothin' says lovin' like somethin' from the oven", there has been a love affair between Mary Kantorski and the people of McHenry for the past forty-five years. She has been welding the tools of her delectable trade in various kitchens for the townspeople since 4932. An effervescent 85, she is currently delighting the hearfcT lhat the musical ac. A big disappointment in Mary's life, of a different nature, was the dispersal of the McHenry Senior Citizen Kit­ chen band. Mary not only knows how to brew a stimulating cup of tea, she "plays" a teapot, along with a and bells. She admits (and stomachs) of the Reverends Petit and Kearney atSr. Patrick's parish house as cook and housekeeper. Her zucchini bread is a special favorite of Fr. Kearney. When asked if there was anything she particularly likes to cook, her reply is "anything they want, I love to fix". Her culinary talents were first recognized by Dr. Lee Gladstone and Dr. Alvary when the McHenry clinic was being prepared for its opening. She was escorted to one of the four original rooms intended for use as a kitchen and told she was to equip it to her satisfaction with whatever she might need. The faith of her employers was rewarded by years of nutritious and delicious meals until the calender reported 65 years of age and "retirement". Not for this lady. There were i n n u m e r a b l e w e d d i n g s , banquets, anniversaries, and other affairs where Mary could offer what she does best. Many years ago, anyone who patronized the Nook restaurant on the corner of Route 31 and Main street (where Main Paint now stands) sampled the ex­ pertise of Mary for five delicious years. The American Legion post home was predecessor of the McHenry Savings and Loan association building on Green and diners there were in Mary's capable hands for what she remembers as "a good many years". She also graced the kitchen of the McHenry Country club for some time. When asked what she thinks of our modern convenience "foods", she admits she is a "from scratch" cook. Food is defined as a material con­ sisting essentially of protein, carbohydrate and fat but everything Mary cooks is whipped together with love as the main ingredient. This lady of sunshine loves life yet has had some dark times. She recalls, with a catch in her voice, the loss of her husband and, three years later, the untimely death of her 42- year-old son, a policeman in Chicago. She speaks proudly of a daughter in Chicago, a son, grandchildren and great­ grandchildren. complishments of the band were not so much a loss as the company of her fellow in­ strumentalists. She enjoyed their company for ten years. • » .«V 1 a. xft t- r# HJ|| |S . Uw A hobby she enjoys, of a quieter nature, is drawings done with liquid paints. She says she can work at the parish house during eay, cook for an affair later, and, with her-pen drawing in hand that evening, not feel the effects of a busy day. It is a source of relaxation and an expression of talent quite different from the kitchen atmosphere she is so com­ fortable in. Heart, surgery two years ago kept Mary off her feet for two whole days, which was enough inactivity for her. Her boun­ dless energy has been revitalized and she puts in a day which could put many younger than she to shame. If the heavenly creations from her kitchen are any testimonial at all, Someone's in the kitchen with Mary. Some "popular" ..peo­ ple aren't as popular as they would have you think. The hero does not always have heroic children, and is still less likely to have heroic grand children. -R. W. Emerson. OFFICE OPENING November 17, 1977 DR. MICHAEL J.
