Thank you David, K8OLY, for your service to our country
Thank you for the stories about your early musical experiences as a paid church organist at the age of twelve, and later playing Philadelphia's Wanamaker pipe organ and the Tabernacle organ on Temple Square, and especially the impromptu recitals on the benches of the East Lansing Stake Center organ and the Holt Chapel. I'm especially grateful for the personal lessons you offered me, it was a great boost for me in my music playing.
Ron Harger WD8BCS upon hearing your voice for the first time on the air said he thought he was listening to the voice of God.
Joe Bell WD8USA and Bill Tate KD8AAD also share kind memories of you.
THEY must need a new organist up THERE or THEY wouldn't have called you home.
Now you will have time to consider our discussion of the plates during my visit to your home.
