Dortha,I am so sorry... I just learned of your father's passing! My mom, Vera, and Dad, Ed, and I were great admirers of both your mom and dad and their dedication and love for their students. I have many fond memories of our families doing things together, as young musicians and friends. I just lost my dad today...he would have turned 100 in 2 weeks! Please get in touch, Jan Bares White.
We send our sincere sympathy to your family. We are here to support you in your time of loss – today and for as long as you need us. – The Staff of Harbor Hospice.
So very sorry for your loss. I remember your Dad very well. He was my 10th grade English teacher. His hair was always slicked back and he would put the cap back on his thermos of coffee before we had to read Great Expectations by Charles Dickens out loud as a class.
