It's Feature Friday! 🎬⛸️
Looking back at Chuck and Donna Burke's apartment at Covenant Living of Northbrook where you could find a lifetime of speed skating memorabilia. Chuck competed in the 1952 and 1956 Winter Olympics (his USA team coat still fits!), while Donna was a North American champion in her own right. 🏅
Married 65 years and both former Chicago-area coaches, the two remain tied to the sport they love, still cheering on Team USA every time the Winter Olympics roll around.
A gold-medal love story, on and off the ice. 💙
