Who is playing this piano, and why?
It is this lady; Kay. I could not get her last name.
Kay is 85 years young, and is the oldest person ever to graduate from Virginia Tech College. She is Suma Cum Laude with honors in music.
Kay has been attending classes since 2007, and goes to a couple each semester. So she has been on campus for more than SIX DECADES!
Her husband drives her to and from class every day.
I saw this on the news and took the photos from the T.V. she has more energy than me!

I love to hear about older people living good and productive lives and enjoying life. :)
Oh, I love stories like this. Kay sounds like such a talented and dear lady. That's amazing she still plays the piano at 85. She looks so small against that GRAND. That's so sweet of her husband to drive her to her classes every day. I always wish I would have stuck with my piano lessons. The sound of the piano is beautiful.
