[Oe List ...] [Dialogue] Bill Grow

[JB Webster]

I was a sort-of Sabcho Panza to Bill during my two sojourns with Bill and
Nan in Brazil. I am ever grateful for his insights, conversations and care.
He even enlisted me to practice with him singing tenor in the Brazilian
Bach chorale. Fortunately I didn't have to perform.
