At the tender age of 6, my parents transformed our living room into a vibrant hub of worship, turning it into a church. This sacred space was where my musical journey began.

Here Are a Few Fun Facts From
The Life Of A Southern Girl
Who Grew Up In The South
& Lived In The South West:
Here's To: 1978's Most
Valuable Player. He &
My husband Were
Business Friends.
I came Inside & They Were
Chatting In The Living Rm!
The Beautiful Lady he was
dating was a backup singer
with "The 5th Dimension"!
We sang together as I played
piano & she and I sat on
my piano bench together.
The 5th Dimension Is in
"The Grammy Hall Of
Fame" & at the Top of
The Charts.
It's Amazing to have had
that cool experience! It's a
lovely memory!
Withholding names here
because of privacy but
my (little blue songbook)
still has the sweet note
she wrote to me, preserved
inside!
She gave me an auto-
graphed picture but it's
been lost thru many
moves over the years.

Age 6, My parents converted
Our Living Room as a church.
Catherine's Mother & Sister
Taught her to play piano &
To sing Melody & Harmony.
Cathy began playing hymns on
Sunday in their country home:
Singing & creating new songs
from age 6 to age 12 on our
upright piano. If I can hear it,
I can play it.
Cathy's little feet dangled at the
piano bench & strawberry-blonde
hair hung down her back w/a
freckled nose! She uniquely sang
harmony as she played melody!
Catherine & her sister were asked
to sing on local radios, jails & Events.
Now Cathy writes lyrics using
keyboard & software to lay
down melodies for music bed.
Exciting added arrangements
w/extra instruments are laid
down by my friends **Maureen & Rick!
Rick's voice sounds like Neil Diamond!
They are Incredibly Talented Pros
With a fabulous band in Alaska &
Western Colorado. They still do
Christmas & New Years Eve
Shows w/music beds for demos!
