Eleanor and family,

My very first concert in FW was 1973, at the opening of Mr. Wiggs (Parkwest). I was immediately impressed by Lockwood's rolling up his sleeves and helping to set up, move chairs, music stands, whatever was needed. His friendliness, enthusiasm and love of the Philharmonic made me realize I had picked the right orchestra! Years later, we were thrilled to move into your neighborhood. You and Lockwood have been true friends to us and the Philharmonic for all these years since.
Wishing you peace and many blessings,
Adrian and Angela
