We were both in the band at State. He was in the sax section and I was in the flute section. It was the Superman show, I think. A line of saxophones marched toward the 50 from the left, turned to the press box side right in front of a line of flutes and sousaphones, and we followed them across the field. The guy that turned directly in front of me was definitely noticeable. I followed him across that field in September of 1979 and, as far as I know, I've been following him ever since.
what a cool story MrsH. I remember PD's and my first official meeting. He had a turkey neck because he had not shaven and I had washed my face so no makeup at all. He thought I looked like a Beagle. We were married seven months later. A week from Tuesday (the 12th) will be 25 years.
ReplyDeleteMrs. H, I knew you played the flute in the "Famous Maroon Band" but I didn't know your husband had as well. It's funny how your story is so close to mine. I first saw my husband to be while playing flute and he played...saxophone in the same band just a few years later. Thanks for sharing the story. MSRamona
