Hi Donny,

This is something I've observed for years. It's amazing how these people come back to life during the hour that you're there. People who never speak anymore will mouth the lyrics to the songs and their faces light up like a Christmas tree. For me it's a privilege to do this kind of work.

Exactly Joe.....If I was ever in a facility like that I would hope every day that someone like myself or yourself would come and share the gift of music to make my day a bit brighter & everyone else there also.
The "GIFT" must be shared to be truly appreciated.
