[Dixielandjazz] Happy 90th Birthday, Marion

[Janie McCue Lynch]

Thanks for posting that, Steve--always enjoy your interesting articles that
I might not take time to look up myself. 

Here is another "similar but different" one re: Marian McP from the Wall
Street Journal....fascinating woman with lifelong talent.

"Ring the bells that still can ring,  Forget your perfect offering.  There
is a crack, a crack in everything -That's how the light gets in."  (Refrain
from the song Anthem by Leonard Cohen) 



Congratulations on your 90th Marion. Thank you Jimmy for marrying  
Marion and bringing her to the USA.  What I'd like to see is Marion  
and Les Paul together. Go for it, old folks.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
