Musical Memories 2025 (Music at Atria LG) – July 14th, 2025

Music at Atria LG (a precious community where my Dad, aka Grandpa Gene, lives!)

Karen’s Musical Memories 2025—July 14th, 2025

This month we had another musical memories singalong at Atria LG in which I tinkled the ivories with a dozen of the songs from the full set I have already played at Janoah, Meadowbrook, and Atria’s library! Shelly did a fantastic job as MC, engaging my Dad (aka Grandpa Gene) and other residents, staff, and family members who gathered around for an interactive time together. Paul took great photos and videos and sat with Dad whenever he wasn’t turning pages for me 🙂

It was a beautiful time together, and many heartfelt connections were made afterwards. We always have a great time together bringing presence and music, making room for both joy and sorrow, for the greater glory of God!
