I didn't grow up close to the rest of our family's Kimmels, but I do play the piano and always loved it--made up lots of my own tunes, etc. (in my more grandiose moments I call it composing) and thought I was the only one. Then I was given some sheet music Daddy's Aunt Rose Kimmel Kauffman had had published. Her songs tended to be highly patriotic (belligerent?) marches written around WW 1 about how we must beat the Kaiser and the Huns. So I thought there were two of us. Then I went to a Kimmel reunion where they handed out songbooks of hymns and ditties composed by Aunt Anna Kimmel Sanders and by her brother, Uncle Ray Kimmel. And I heard stories about evenings around the piano with everybody singing.... So now I figure it's part of being a Kimmel. (Of course, it seems to have missed my siblings--they paint and sculpt and draw.) Jan T
