Morano, Hugo
by Maude Van Fossen
(from an article in the East Carroll Delta News, June 25, 1981)
Hugo's Restaurant opened July 1, 1956. After Hugo purchased the restaurant and took over the management he began to show interest in his surroundings. He is a native of Eudora, Arkansas.
Hugo purchased the Oakland Manor. In Hugo's twenty-five years now as a permanent parish resident he has acquired a lovely family: Edith, his wife and Frankie, their son, but he had his trumpet much longer than that. He has played with a group: Sidney and Steve Guenard, Harvey Howinton, and Hugo and his trumpet. Hugo plays solo for mass at church, taps at funerals, walking down the street; with the group at wedding receptions and night clubs, in fact anywhere there is dancing or a football game. It was at the football game of 1957, in the game between LSU and Ole Miss, at Oxford, Miss. that Hugo stood at the half and played LSU's Alma Mater never such an ovation.
Hugo and his restaurant and his trumpet are bringing Lake Providence good publicity.
