Note from Eddie Ray


Dino,

I only had the pleasure ( and it was a REAL pleasure!) of dining at the fabulous CAGNEY only a few times and I am so sorry that on my visits to Myrtle Beach I will never have that opportunity again!  I absolutely  loved the ambience, the friendly, courteous service and the fantastic food, all of which were the  very best that I had ever experienced in any restaurant!
Dino, I know that with you there now full time, I will  very soon  feel  the same way about THE FLAMINGO GRILL!

Dino and Dino;
I want you both to know how much I enjoyed working for you both and the awesome staff and managers at Cagney's! Being part of your team helped frame who I am today. Thank for the opportunity, the lessons and the memories.
My husband and I will come by for a visit before your last day.
Thank you.
Stacey Andrews Bowers

Note from Lawson and Cathy Holland


Dino-

WOW!  Cathy and I just brought a couple and their son from Pennsylvania to eat there last Thursday night, and it was so good.  Congratulations on a great, great run!  Hope you have smelled the roses along the way in the past 37 years, and I know you have.  You have certainly provided great food and service, and we always enjoy hearing a good story from you.

Continued successes-

Lawson and Cathy

Cagney’s is where Jackie and I first met and started the love ball rolling.   There have been so many places that have closed their doors, employees would show up for work and the doors would just be shut and they would be out of a job.  You guys have always done things with class, with dignity, with respect to your employees, and even in closing you are still doing that and thinking of others.I could go on and on, but overall the one thing I will remember most about Cagney’s is you all made us family, treated us like family and raised us when are parents weren’t looking.  You guys taught us more than you will ever know about life, about ourselves, and about how to become the people we wanted to be.  You kept us close, and allowed us to stay until we were ready to fly, then you let us go and wished us well and continue to be in our lives. 

Thank you for the belly laughs, the friendships, the love, and the memories that will last a life time.  I love you guys(and Susan) and I don’t think we would be the people we are today without your love and support over the years(a lot of years for most of us, I think at least 12 for me).  Cagney’s was a time in my life I will NEVER forget, as I continue to grow I will think of Cagney’s as probably some of the best times of my life, and I got a bonus......Jackie, the love of my life.

So I guess we will just see you at Flamingo....... or hangin’ in your trees(check out the attached pictures in your yard).

Love you lots!!!!

Note from Randy Jennings.

Cagney's and Cagney's Reunions have held a special place in our hearts and our memories for many years, memories that I know will live in my mind forever.  In case you do not know Patsy and I were married in the Dancin Room.  So you can see we are very fond of the nostalgia that it holds for us and other couples that met and danced and had so many great times there.

Dino and Dino,
This is in deed sad news.  We started coming to Cagney's the year you opened.  You both have been good friends.  I treasure that friendship and I am sure it will continue at Flamingo.  Also, so many of your employees have been an important part of our lives: Danny, Julie, et al.  I hope I will have the opportunity to eat at Cagney's before you close.  It will be a restaurant that will be missed by thousands.
Thank you for your friendship over the years.  I hope we have many more years at Flamingo.

You will be missed and I'm sure this reunion will be the best ever!!!  You guys have made history and the best restaurant in this area!!
But will continue to see you at Flamingo's.
