Pianos so often evoke wonderful memories of people and events. Though possibly older than yours, mine still exerts a powerful reminder of the long ago. Thank you for sharing.

I started piano lessons at just under age 6, Maureen, on an old upright piano my grandparents found for us, and played a series of makes and models at home and all the way through college, where I was accompanist for a singing group on a USO Tour of the Caribbean. After Kim & I were married (almost nine years ago), we found this beautiful little conservatory grand in a music store and fell in love with the sound. It had been a floor model for over a year and they made me too sweet a deal on it to resist. We have 10-ft. ceilings and the lush tones of the piano just roll through the house and fill it with sound!
