It is with a heavy heart that I let you know, Hazel passed away on May 2nd. She went very peacefully in her sleep. She had a full life, and we were lucky to have had her this long.
She would have been 93 on Sept 3rd this year.

Sure sorry to hear this Jerry is the owner of "Entertainment Coaches of America" in Leesburg, FL and Jack is the owner of "Florida Coach" in Kissimmee, FL With heavy hearts we share news that Jack Calhoun has passed away, Friday November 17th. Celebration of Life will begin at 11...

Your right Donna, she's done more than I can even remember. So I just call Billy Robinson who lives across the road from Ruth and Howard and he is going to post on here Sunday about Ruth.

Thanks for asking, she was such a sweet lady.

It is with great sadness to find out that our dear friend Ruth White wife of well-known steel guitarist Howard White passed last Friday, Dec. 30. We love to stop by for a visit and bring her oranges from our tree. We will miss this great lady. Our Prayers for Kathleen and the family. Ruth Carolyn Bl...

Thanks Don for responding. It's good to hear from leaders of other clubs. But you know what they say about hindsight and foresight.
The paragraph in the beginning of the post pretty much says what your saying. It's hard to catch chickens after they got loose.

Thanks
Danny

Thanks Joe for the input The key word here is "Show". The Club Had one "Legends Show" a year and two "Holiday Potlucks" which was a round robin with club pickers. The rest of the year was one or two members picking their own set, and picking their own singer if they wan...

I will not dignify Mr. Thompson’s rebuttal with a rebuttal. It seems to be full of half and non-truths. The steel players and old members are the ones I care about and they know the truth. I may live in Florida, but I seem to be getting a lot of phone calls from Louisville. Danny, I'm glad you bro...

Letter from Ed xxxxxx G'Morning brother Danny! I'm so disappointed to learn about the Louisville SteelClub being lost to and overrun by intrusive musicians/singers...but, this does seem to be a growing fad, in this country, with so many clubs, organizations, and offices. This I'm sure, is not news t...

Thanks everyone for your input and feelings on this and for your time.

Thanks b0b for moving, I was not sure where to post it.

Louisville Metro Steel Guitar Club Don’t let this happen to your steel club. . It was a very hard decision to temporarily close the Louisville Metro Steel Guitar Club website and Facebook pages. It seems the Louisville Steel Guitar Club has turned into a country music singing club, A few meetings...

Gee Dan, I wish I could be there with ya guy

This is breaking my heart to tell you I'm not going to be able to make it this year. My Dr. thought it was not a good idea with my Congestive Heart problems. Medication is so important and I know I would miss 2 or more days of not being able to take it. And blood pressure is out of control and oxyge...
