She shall have music wherever she goes!
Our ever-present, always singing (ever-munching )sweetheart, Laura Martin, being remembered by her PT community and beyond. She and I go back to the 1970's Seattle Folklore Society and early days of NW Folklife Festival.

Here she is at a few of our more recent SingPeace! Pilgrimage for Peace & Global Harmony events:

"For Pete's Sake!" 2014 on Whidbey Island (Facebook photos)
We did an entire video interview with Laura prior to this 8 hour Pete Seeger tribute. Due to "technical problems," we lost this and most of the tapes from this series. But here is Laura singing at the event.
