Not sure what to say?

B.A. generously played Taps at my grandfather´s graveside service in 2005, AND he had photographs taken, developed, and then mailed them to my family. We were strangers; I had found his contact information through a volunteer organization. It was such a kind and thoughtful gesture and I am forever grateful for his service.

I enjoyed many years of beautiful music from B.A.'s trumpet, while we played with the Abilene Community Band. I especially enjoyed some of his arrangements of wonderful tunes for the band to play. My prayers for comfort go out to his family.

I love you Dad!!!
