CANTON – At the end of a Canton shopping row, a pink sign saying Justine’s Dancewear hangs above a bright pink door. A manikin wearing a burnt orange leotard and another sporting a royal purple tutu sit on display through the glass window.
Today is like any normal Wednesday for Patricia Rose, the owner of Justine’s Dancewear located at 512 Washington St. Canton. Customers waited outside until Rose jams her keys in the front door unlocking what she describes as a dancer’s paradise.
The business, named after her daughter Justine, first opened its doors in April 1999. For a total of 22 years, Rose has serviced the community of Brockton and neighboring towns with quality dancewear, said Rose who lived in Brockton for many years and now lives in Randolph.

I ve been furloughed from my job since March 2020, so until the restrictions ease up enough to resume, I am home-based and without much of a schedule of appointments or commitments. So what have I done? I ve walked and walked and walked. I walk every day, usually for at least 2 or 3 miles, sometimes as far as 4 or 5 miles.
