I still play clarinet, sometimes even for pay, although I have also become corrupted
by the evil Saxophone. After 20 years as an Air Force officer, many of those as
a navigator and bombardier in B-52's, I now work as a School Services Representative
for a local music store. Currently I play clarinet regularly in the Saginaw (MI)
Eddy Concert Band (paid summer band), lead alto sax and clarinet in the Baytones
(15-piece big band), and "utility infielder" (most recently alto sax, but previously
clarinet, bass clarinet, alto clarinet, and tenor sax) in the Bay Concert Band
(Bay City, MI community band), as well as occasional pit orchestra gigs on various
woodwinds (most recently clarinet, tenor sax, and OBOE (!) for "Anything
Goes" and tenor
and bari sax for "Footloose" performed by local high school groups).
My daughter Kathy (ND '97) was not in the band, but did sing in the Liturgical
Choir.
