UPDATE: Visiting Mom this weekend, I learned that she once sang a Christmas song on TV Channel 3 WISC. She said it was when I was about three. I'm going to contact WISC and see if they have the old tapes still that we could find and copy the music!
I have a great repertoire of music - I like all kinds, from country to rock to classical to gospel to jazz to bluegrass. My kids friends are amazed that not only do I let the kids listen to their radio stations in the car, but that I know all the lyrics, even to some rap songs, and not only that, but that I sometimes sing along.
Music has always been a big part of my life, the good times of my life. I remember my mom singing in the car to the AM radio when we'd go places. She has the most beautiful voice and I hear she won singing awards in high school. But one day the singing stopped. I don't remember when. The last time I remember her singing was at an aunt's wedding in Janesville. I've also heard that mom and dad sang together in church. I wish I could remember that. But I miss hearing mom sing.
Another person I love to hear sing is Uncle Art. He has the best voice. I love his style, a deep, rusty kind of voice. I want to get a tape recording of him singing, doesn't matter what. And Mom too, I'd love a tape recording of that.
