White Pigeon honors magician

A big name in the world of magic and illusion will be honored in the community where he lived the final 28 years of his life.
White Pigeon village officials, fellow magicians and members of the Hank Moorehouse family will gather this weekend for the ceremony during which a portion of the street on which he lived will be ceremoniously named “Hank Moorehouse Avenue.”
The fanfare takes place at 5:30 p.m. Saturday at the corner of East Murray Avenue and South Kalamazoo Street.
Municipal officials last month approved the honorary designation. For village and postal-service purposes, however, East Murray Avenue will remain the official street designation.
