My sympathies to you, Tim, on the passing of your Dad, and to you, Lowell, on the passing of your brother! I am so grateful that he was at the Nome Alumni Banquet this summer! It was fun to see him there, although it was obvious his physical body was failing him. He definitely impacted my life as a vocal instructor at Nome High School. The Nome sextet and triple trio were his inspiration and my greatest motivation to be involved in music , too! There wasn't a mean bone in his body -- he was encouraging and helpful. He enjoyed life! A wonderful man! I miss him already! But I plan to sing in the same choir with him when I get there! May God give you comfort and strength during this sad time!
