Churchill & Me


People who have lived on Churchill Road for more than a few years will remember John Grogan and Jenny Vogt, who lived with a dog named Marley in what we lovingly refer to as the Cheddar Cheese House.
John and Jenny have moved on to Pennsylvania, but while they were here John faithfully kept a journal about his life and his crazy dog, Marley.
John was a columnist for the Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel and Jenny was a reporter for The Palm Beach Post.
After Marley died John turned that journal into a best-selling book called Marley and Me. In fact, on Sunday the book went to No. 1 on The New York Times best-seller list!
Churchill Road neighbor Barry is mentioned in the book. She is credited with helping chase away a criminal.
Although the Vogt/Grogans left Churchill Road for Boca halfway through the book, John said he misses the blue Intracoastal waters and the cornucopia of restaurants within walking distance of our little block.
And John Grogan has a blog of his own.
