When Howard read that the Beavercreek Christian Church was wanting to sell their baby grand piano, he immediately thought of granddaughter Madeline.
Madeline takes lessons from "Mr. Carl" the next-door neighbor who retired after spending many years playing with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra.
She not only loves to play, and is doing well at it, but she writes much of her own music as well. She recently wrote "Indian Rainfall" for her recital which gave us a goosebump or two when we heard it for the first time.
The price tag on the piano made it possible for Papaw to fulfill a dream Madeline has been carrying, but she never had a clue it would happen now. Thanks Papaw....you're the greatest!
