Event planned to benefit CASA in name of Baby Chandler

By Howard B. Owens

Former local DJ Macy Paradise is returning home to perform at T.F. Brown's on Dec. 29 in a show intended to bring in donations to Genesee County's CASA (Court-Appointed Advocates Special Advocates) program.

"I'm a father first and the news of Chandler's death hit me extremely hard," Paradise said. "Unfortunately, I was a coworker of Jeff Deats at Tompkins Metal about 10 years ago so this story was extremely difficult for me as it was many others. decided it was best to donate to CASA to hopefully prevent losing another innocent child to violence."

Paradise now lives in Fort Collins, Colo., and returns to Batavia twice a year to perform at either T.F. Brown's or City Slickers.

Showtime is 9 p.m., Friday.
