More than 400 people dined on French food, wine and desserts at the recent “Night with Nemours Taste of France” gala.

Held May 10 at the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club, the evening featured dinner and entertainment, including music from the Jacksonville-based Bold City Classics and a mind-bending performance by mentalist and magician Oz Pearlman.

Nemours Children’s hematologist/oncologist Dr. Michael Joyce and retired Nemours hematologist/oncologist Dr. Cynthia Gauger were honored for their decades of dedicated service and care for Nemours patients and families. Aubrey Edge, president and CEO of First Coast Energy and president of the Daily’s Foundation, also was honored for his contributions to Nemours and the Jacksonville community.

Proceeds from the gala support the Nemours Children’s Compassionate Care Fund, which helps provide world-class care wherever the need is greatest.
