Les,
I have many happy memories of sitting with Maryalice in the viola section of Westerville Symphony. We'd chat about everything including the fact the we both had white deaf cats, that we had both named after Beethoven. I think of Maryalice often. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

May God bless you with peace and consolation in this time of separation. You are in my prayers. As we look back across the years, there are not many in our lives who made a difference - but you did! You were a wonderful teacher who helped me more than you know, and I'm sure you'll hear the same from many others. May you draw strength from our admiration and prayers. God bless you.

I was so sorry to read of your wife's passing. You both have touched so many lives. You certainly touched mine. I was a 1960 graduate at North and chosen to be a majorette for the 1959/60 school year. It was a life-saving event for me. Sometimes we don't know the effect we can have on people. You and your wife have been a blessing to many.
May God bless you and give you peace.
