This is the final of 3 blog entries in regards to the recent Boys Town Alumni Reunion Weekend (July 24-26, 2009).
After much effort to find a way to post this finally have gotten it up on Utube.
Many thanks goes to Jerry Webb (BT Class of 64) for recording this.
This is just a portion of the concert we alumni choir members gave at the conclusion on Mass on July 26. It is one of the first songs, followed by a medley to the branches of the armed forces many alumni served in (they stood to be recognized as each branch song was sung) and an encore.
The break between the end and encore was due to Reggie Walton, who endured many battles with cancer aqnd dialysis over a 10 year period and received his new kidney just 2 weeks before the reunion weekend was determined to make it…he was giving thanks for all the prayers and well wishes sent his was…Reggie is an inspiration to us all.
Hopefully soon a full audio of the concert will be available.
Note: the alumni choir met for only 2 hours during the weekend ot rehearse for this presentation. We hope to add soprano & alto voices at the next reunion in 2011.
Enjoy!
Peace,
Larry~
