Dear Steve:-
I read in the Reedwooder of the Accordion Club newsletter, that you are finally going to “Hang up your apron” insofar as cooking is concerned for our dinner dances and I presume that is also for our picnics!!!
Well, well, well, I commend you for your decision and congratulate you for this notable decision; however, having said that, I’m certainly going to miss all your excellent cooking in all aspects.
You have it coming to you and to be able to relax now and enjoy your great laurels!!!
However, despite older age for all of us nowadays, that you will continue to play your excellent music for as long as you can or want to!!!
Naturally, we all enjoy your musicianship, always and forever!!!
We would also want to commend you for pioneering the many musical activities that you have engaged in; such as founding person who began and served continuously in the “Accordion Club of the Redwoods!” Also, especially, your association of the famous Cotati Accordion Festival!!! Plus many other great engagements that you have personally been involved!!!
Best of Everything for you, henceforth!
Al Gardi
