Each year the Brookside Business Association selects a business owner or other contributor to the Brookside Shops to serve as the honorary Mr. and/or Mrs. Irish. This year’s honoree is Sandra Neumann, Owner, Brookside Gallery and Framing. “I’m so excited and honored. It’s awesome! It’s going to be so much fun. My cheeks will probably get tired from grinning and waiving. It will be fun.” We love Sandra “O’Neumann’s” enthusiasm!
