---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I apologize for not bringing a technical issue up, but I just wanted to relay an experience I had today. About 1 1/2 years ago I was asked to rebuild a humble Howard 5' grand. The piano belonged to an elderly woman who had taught two foreign languages at a local university. Her daughter and son had thought it important to do the work. Both are accomplished classical musicians and had many memories of making music at this piano. Mom was fading fast so there was some sense of urgency in getting the work done while she was still here. Since mom was only really responding to the music of her children I gave them a small piano to use. When I finished the piano, it was decided to take it to the family farm in Western Minnesota, about 12 hours away. Usually I would just call a mover but I felt compelled to take it there myself. So my 14 year old son, Kyle, and I loaded it in the trailer and set off. Mom died this fall. I left the piano at her house because the family would be there off and on cleaning up and readying the house for sale. And music was such apart of their memories, it had to continue for at least a little longer. With much sadness, I picked up that little spinet today, it was time for the memories to end. They will be continued on a farm in Minnesota.
