Attorneys and politicians gathered to honor Appellate Court Justice Mary Schostok at Crystal Lake’s D’Andrea Banquets last night. The parking lot was almost full.
Before Schostok took the podium to explain her accomplishments in Lake County, McHenry County Sheriff Keith Nygren extolled her virtues, describing her as a friend of the law enforcement community.
They hugged after his introduction.
Schostok also introduced her fellow appointed Appellate Court Justice Ann Jorgensen.
Prior to the program, Justice Schostok greeted people at the door.
Mary I am so happy for you. I am sorry I couldn’t make it but would love to have been there. You have so many supporters and that is great. You are awesome.
