90th Birthday Music Card




I made this special vintage sheet music card for a special man who was my very first boss.  He hired me straight out of college to teach low brass and play in the symphony in West Texas.  One of my low brass students was his son, and over the years, I became great friends with his daughter.  Her daughter (his granddaughter) was not only an amazing All-State flute player that performed in one of the high school orchestra's I conducted, she also came back as an adult (and music teacher) and performed an awesome flute solo with my middle school orchestra for a TMEA Honor Concert.   His daughter was also my daughter's flute teacher for years.  There is a huge celebration for his 90th birthday this month!
Happy Birthday to a very special man!

I will be entering this in the Cas-ual Fridays Challenge #160
