His name is John Grace. He is retired now and in failing health. John could play and sing gospel hymns. Like Mr. Trenholm, John lost his eyesight in a couple of childhood incidents. John was African American. John also possessed quite bit of mechanical genius. And John was wonderful to be around. In a seemingly infinite universe-infinite human creativity is-seemingly possible. According to NASA, 93% of the earth like planets possible in the known universe have yet to be formed. Contact: toneman1@me.com

Decades ago, I was impressed when two movers picked up either end of an early Yamaha U1 Disklavier and walked it into my house. These days I kid myself into thinking I can lift weights, at a gym where the owner squats 440lbs, and one of the coaches squats 500lbs. I suppose you need quite a bit of muscle to move a piano, and to do it blind, that is amazing.
