1994 – 2018
Cely and I joined an organization that supports the LA Music Center education programs at about the same time. We also both left the organization a few years later at the same time. This was a clue that we had something in common. This matured into a wonderful friendship where we discovered we had many things in common. We supported each other through our battles with the BIG “C”. We both felt that honesty and integrity were values that should be practiced in life and required of our acquaintances. We wished it to be true in our politicians. One of our favorite things was to meet at our local park for a picnic lunch and stroll around the lake. We talked constantly about love of family, friends, the arts, and (of course) current events and politics. I will miss my dear friend with all my heart. Great friends are precious!!
