KIRKWOOD MUSICIAN MEL BAY RECEIVES RECOGNITION

Our own famous Mel Bay, musician and world-renown music publisher, is to receive a star on the St. Louis Walk of Fame on June 30th. For Mr. Bay's story and the details about the Star go here, and congratulations to the members of the Bay family for this wonderful honor. I'm sure MANY of us in KHS65 have some connection in our past to Mel Bay's Music store in Kirkwood. I remember the trips there with my mom to purchase my piano books when I was taking lessons from Mrs. Lane, my 4th grade teacher at Robinson. And somewhere in the recesses of my mind I seem to have a memory of a venture there for one of my kids....piano books for Alexis or a violin rental for Matt??? Fuzzy memories....
