I am Gary Patterson and my father John Patterson took this photo I owe my teaching by Sandy Butler and the wonderful music making at the 55th for the fantastic foundation to my life long career in music, both as a player and teacher. I am extremely proud to have belonged to this group of dedicated and talented musicians. My time in the band has had a lasting and profound effect in my life. A photo with so many great memories.
