Larry
and I began square dancing in 1948, the year we were married. Larry
had taken and enjoyed a square dance class in college the year before we
met. Little did we know what an influence the dancing would have
on our way of life and on our relationships with other people. We went
from the Mainstream dancing (that most people know about) to Advanced dancing
and into Challenge. Larry loved all the levels. He angeled the Trail Dusters
beginning classes for about 7 or 8 years. We always had to dance
all the tips at a dance, rarely sitting out a tip. We never went
to a dance where we left early. The last two years were years with no dancing
for Larry and just a few dances for me before I gave up. When he died,
I asked our friend Irene to tell the square dance world. I was amazed at
the outpouring of memorable moments many of us shared together, the thoughtful
comments about Larry and his personality and the prayers people shared.
I thank TrailBlazers and PACE for 20 plus unforgettable years.
