‘Adieu, Grande Dame’
alley residents, from left to right, Adrian Norris, Roberta and Tom Heinrich, and Bill Norris enjoy good times and fond memories Saturday night during the final dinner served in the Lodge Dining Room at Sun Valley Resort. They were four of 166 guests invited to the celebration. Sun Valley Co. opened its doors with a gala opening in the Lodge Dining Room in 1936 under the ownership of the Union Pacific Railroad. Bill Norris first dined in the room when he was 10, in 1947. In the 1970s, Tom Heinrich worked in the Duchin Room lounge, where Gretchen’s restaurant is now. The room will soon be incorporated into an expansive project to build a world-class spa at the Sun Valley Lodge. Photo by Willy Cook
