    Betty! Your work is beyond stunning! I am certainly blessed to have the opportunity to view it through Dr. Harrison's incredible network. My dearly departed Mother was a Pittsburgh artist also, and I would love to speak or communicate with you further! I could only handle viewing some of your work, I felt so overwhelmed by the imagery, and thanks to your connecting the PJN, I look forward to seeing more..... Thank you again for sharing! sincerely and respectfully yours, david shane

    Hi All:

    I'm making my re-debut in Cleveland (after 30+ years since playing there several times, in the dark ages) on Aug. 20, 7pm, at Nighttown in Cleveland Hts. Anyone who feels like hopping over there or who knows folks in that area, please feel free to pass this on.

    Thanks, I don't have the hometown advantage so hope to get a little help w/ spreading the word, eh?

    Best,
