On a Sad Note…
One of our long-time members, Pauline Ching, passed away in March. Pauline has been an active piano teacher and a member of the Mt. Rainier Chapter for many years, and will be very missed. Pauline and her husband Gil were married for 55 years. We will have a card to sign at the April meeting that will be sent with our sympathies to Gil Ching.
