Classic Bluegrass

[Marty Henrickson]

Hi Willie - I'm afraid i'm a permanent fixture - UK born & bred, although my father from Pittsburgh,PA, was a soldier in the US Armed Forces Signals Corps. He unfortunately didn't survive WWII. His best army buddy,Earl Beulah,who married my mother's best friend,did survive & returned to the US to live in Witchita,Kansas.After Earl's death,Gwen,his wife, eventually re-married & now lives in St Louis,Missouri.
My 'original' 'Cafe name was Saska,That was my father's surname - he was Polish American. After my father's passing,my name was changed to my mother's family name (under duress from my Grandfather).So,my given name at my christening was Ivan Saska. I've often thought about changing it back,but at 66 years old,what's the point ?,

Very interesting story, Ivan. I think there's a song in there somewhere.

From Marty H. - "I think there's a song in there somewhere." Oh Lord ! - how depressing !!!,
