Swing Dancing to Michael Jackson...at 90!

Val was always a fun guy at a party. He would sing around the piano with Mame playing old favorites & show tunes. And in this photo, Dad was dancing to Michael Jackson with me at Stephen & Barbara Wilson's wedding reception. He danced with each of his daughters, granddaughters, Kathy & Aunt Mary Workman.
