Wunnerful, Wunnerful

Lawrence Welk
March 11, 1903 – May 17, 1992

I have some pretty amazing memories of watching The Lawrence Welk Show with my Mom. That was a time in my childhood when everything was possible, when everyone in my family was happy and healthy and my Mom had her whole life ahead of her.

My Mom knew I had an innate musical ability. From the time I was a baby, I responded to music more than any other stimulus, food included. My Mom did everything to expose me to as much music as possible. The Lawrence Welk Show, along with The Donny & Marie Show were television staples in our home.

Thank you Mr. Welk for the champagne music memories. I'm sure you've had a wunnerful dance or two with my Mom over the years.
