Have lived in Colorado most of my adult life. Retired after teaching full-time orchestra in Colorado Springs CO District Eleven for about 50 years. Attend as many concerts as I possibly can and enjoy traveling throughout Colorado. Currently retired from the Colorado Springs Youth Symphony Assoc. as coach and conductor. Work with the New Horizons Band and Orchestra of Colorado Springs as Conductor of the Cello Choir.

Favorite memories revolve around the musical, "L'il Abner," orchestra and music shenanigans, and some great teachers: Chas Musgrave, Doris Rue, Florence Wollerman, Cliff Davenport and Delores Price.

Ran into our principal, Mr. Davis, out here in Colorado Springs at a donut shop! He passed away about 10 or 15 years ago (could be longer). He looked the same as his yearbook photos. He was living here back in the 80's.
