Subject: RE: Obit: For the not so famous
My father who died this year at the age of 98. He first ran across folk songs back in the 1930's when he taught at the Arthurdale Community School in West Virgina. Other teachers there who loved folk music included Margaret and Fletcher Collins who later moved to Staunton, Virgina, and founded the Oak Grove Festival. We'll be doing a Remembrance Event of father next summer for family and friends.
