Reading the bios of our ukulele band members (in last Friday's concert program), I was quite taken by this one:
My musical background started with piano lessons at the age of eight (it didn't take). Next came the clarinet in the high school marching band (the uniform didn't fit). Now, 85 years after the piano (do the math), I'm enjoying musical life playing with the Delta Strummers.
This WWII pilot is the picture of health, recently re-married and, although I knew he was 93, it really hit me when I read his bio. His prior girlfriend (now wife) sings in a local mixed choir and attends every Delta Strummers performance. He reciprocates and attends every choir performance.
