Welcome to UKY.  I'm sure that you have tons of knowledge, stories and insight to share here.

Where in Chicago do you come from?  Is it, as your name suggests, Cicero?

Yes Kelle,I was born in Berwyn raised in Cicero. After college I moved to N Lakeshore Drive,and lived in a couple of great flats downtown. I consider London my home now but we still own a house in the western suburbs.

I grew up in Brookfield.  However, had lots of relatives a generation or two ago from Cicero, though everybody has migrated west.

(I was saddened to hear that Home Run Inn is closing it's original restaurant on 31st in Chicago..)

I'm always amazed at what a small world it really is.

Wow, there have been so many Illinoisans joining lately.  My sister was born in Berwyn but I've never been there other than passing through in the car.

Welcome!  :D
