Cheryl Turner & Phyllis Plotnick perform a jive/jitterbug at the Harvest of Hope Breast Cancer Benefit Ball, October 1996, at the Historic Gulfport Casino Ballroom. This was the last time they performed together. The ball memorialized Phyllis’ mother Sonia Plotnick who died at age 49 of breast cancer. The sold-out ball’s proceeds were donated to the Women’s Breast Cancer Fund.
