Musical Background

(January, 2023) My daddy was a DJ on the radio for 63 years. So, I learned to like country music, mostly. He gave me my first guitar, a Stella, when I was twelve and he taught me three chords. I wrote my first song in 1953 titled “Young Lover”. I loved to sing, and I still do. I have written songs in each decade since.

My bride bought my first keyboard. It was a Casio. It made all kinds of great little sounds and I loved it! My first PSR was a 740, I believe.

My bride, Sandra, and I have been married for 47 years. We have three sons. The two that are married have given us three grandchildren. We live I Texarkana, Texas and are both retired. I am 86 and my bride, 81. I am still writing, arranging and recording my songs, Tyros and Tyros 4. Now, I have a new SX900!

I am happy to be part of PSR Tutorial Performers. This site has helped me to solve keyboard issues many times. I have taken the opportunity to download several songs by Performers and we are enjoying the music very much. I will continue to write and sing as long as I can.

I thank Joe Waters for his patience and help!
