Linton Garner Fundraiser at Rossini's

May 16, 2004

By Catherine Barr

 

It was a time to remember and a time to celebrate last Sunday night at Rossini's in Gastown as friends and admirers of the late Linton Garner held a special jazz cabaret benefit in his name. "What is this Thing Called Love" featured performances by singer Patti V in a salute to the famed Pittsburgh piano player who called Vancouver (and Rossini's) home up until his death in March 2003. All proceeds raised go to the Linton Garner Foundation.
