Baltimore native and City College grad Lonnie Shorr came back home for a great cause recently. Shorr, a nationally acclaimed funnyman who has appeared on hundreds of TV shows from Merv Griffin to “The Tonight Show,” gave a rare local performance during “The Toast to the League”  fundraiser for The League of People with Disabilities, a Baltimore-based nonprofit.

Special honorees were longtime volunteers and donors Marni and Phil Wetzler, who have an amazing history of service to the league ? going back to Phil?s mother, who used to bring him along when she volunteered. Shorr, who flew in just to regale the Wetzlers, was joined by the league?s CEO, David Greenberg, in honoring the pair.
