[All] Nepal

[Donald Roberts]

Hello Susan
  That's a very worthwhile and positive venture.
  Mark Vuornin (?) of the K-W Philharmonic is also organizing a
community massed choir choral fundraiser on Sunday May 24. Details are
being worked out. First rehearsal is tomorrow (Wednesday) evening.
  Lots of support in the community for the disaster victims.
Regards
                         Don Roberts
