A sense of humor and a love of music keep former librarian Jeanette `Queenie' Thompson performing.
If Jeanette Thompson had a theme song, the lyrics would have to refer to her happy feet. At least once during each of her performances, she plops her foot onto the piano for a celebratory chiming of the keys. Even when Thompson's feet rest near the piano pedals, her toes tap in ragtime rhythm. Much like the lifestyle of Thompson, 81, the vigorous movement is nonstop. When she's not a featured performer at the Boggstown Cabaret southeast. [T.J. BANES SPECIAL WRITER]
