Sorry for your lost, I was one of your mom's piano students and I also watched your grandma for her. She was a great lady, fun and kind. I learned much about piano from her and enjoyed her teaching.

Shirley, I remember your Mom and Dad from their shop near Garfield. My Father and his sisters and brother's went to Manuel, probably were in some of your Mom's classes....who knew. My Father died after we moved to Arizona, he was only 44. I am thinking of you and your family. With Sympathy,
