Thread Name: Lyr Req: Amelia's Waltz
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Amelia's Waltz
Bob comes to Juneau periodically, as he does to a lot of other communities. One of his unique qualities is his habit of writing a tune that he names in honor of someone who has helped him. Thus there is a tune called 'Stey's Stay', a reel named for a friend who puts him up every time he comes to town.

As for his tune books, as was said above, there are lots, all hand written that I've seen- divided into jigs, reels and waltzes. A most prolific man.
