I will always remember those days when I took piano lessons with her. Mrs. Wetmore was a great piano teacher. It was a little tricky to understand her because of her heavy accent especially since I was just a little kid but I really admired her. I miss her dearly and I´ll never forget her.

She was a beautiful woman. I took her music theory classes in 2004 at HCC, as well as private piano lessons. She had such a kind heart. I still have the pic of her, and the rest of our class. She's sitting in the middle as if she was our proud grandmother. I'm at my piano (sadly, I'm so on and off with playing), and wanted to look her up. Sadly, she is no longer with us. RIP, Mrs. Wetmore.
