I knew Paul - He regularly attended Old Threshers at Mt. Pleasant, IA -
(my old home town). Paul and my mother were both pipe/electronic organ
musicians, and likedto play together whenever they could find a couple
of instruments together at the show. Paul would occasionally sub as
engineer on our 1906 Baldwin mogul.
