Peabody records its Vintage Voices
Story by Adam Levine
PEABODY — Jack York drove his Vintage Voices van to the Harriet & Ralph Kaplan Estates on Thursday for the most recent stop on his interview series.
York took Rose Quarato, Charlie Kanter, and Jenny Ruggiero on drives around the city for recorded interviews. As they sat in the passenger’s side of his well-traveled van, each vintage soul shared advice, life experiences, smiles, and laughs.
Quarato, who is 103 years old, gave York a “therapy session,” as he described it, with her psychic abilities as they drove through the city.
Kanter, who will turn 100 years old on Dec. 22, told York about growing up in Connecticut, working as a farmer, and the keys to staying active in the dating scene.
