When Michael Levy was 7 years old, his parents bought him a piano from a Memphis church. It may be big and ugly, as his mother Pat describes it, and it may have cost far more than it's worth to move it to their Chesterfield home, but he loved it.

Today, the piano sits silent in Pat's airy, wood-paneled basement, recalling memories of Michael: His fingers hitting the keys, his voice singing joyfully, his "cute round behind" on the bench that holds his sheet music.

THANK YOU Pat and all the brave and compassionate family members who were with us in the trenches of the pandemic. I lost half my friends and my lover by 1990, and just barely survived until 1996 when protease inhibitor drugs were tested. Another friend of mine was also near death in 96' he could no longer digest food, and was fed through a hep port in his chest.
