Just a quickly snapped pic of the family, all too rarely together, as we clean up after dinner. Jenni, Steve, Mari, and Dad.

The family in front of some of the quilts. Dad, Patty, Pam, Me, Mari, Jenni, and Steve.

Gann You Hear Them Blues

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He was really good and quite a character. I got to talk to him for a moment afterwards.

150 Lbs Of Blues

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The evening ended with a concert given by blues man Gil Gann and his two guitars "Freddie May" (being played) and "Roxanne", who's catch phrase was that he was "150 lbs of the blues."

A total surprise to Dad, they announced they were starting a program in Mom's honor. The Susan Greer Fabric Circle will meet once a year for all things textile, with classes from professionals covering quilting, crocheting, fabric choosing, and anything else textile related. They also gave Dad a nice plaque which said many of the same things. It was a very nice speech that got both the presenter and Dad teary eyed.

Monthaven Memorial II

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There was a nice display that had Mom's picture, talked a little about her and had a binder with more exampled of the quilts she'd done.

Finally in the back room there was a small display of some of Mom's quilts, the blue one and the southwestern style one are from Mari and I. Kind of strange to see them on display and have people walk by to study them when we usually have them on our beds.
