Mr. Girt was also
elementary school band instructor at John W. Daniel
across the street. He received permission for me to play
with the Junior Band during my 5th and
6th grade years. My 6th Grade Teacher, Miss Saunders,
thought my time would have been
better spent catching up on arithmetic (I’m still behind). Then-Miss Ellena
Armistead, my 7th Grade mentor, reluctantly allowed
my leaving early, too.

Thanks, Norm!
This
newsletter mentioned that Russell Girt was a music instructor at
NNHS.
You may have already known that, but I bet you didn't know that Russell Girt was
also the first husband of my aunt,
Shirley Dona Linkous Girt Callaway.
They had one child, Susan Melody Girt (Mendenhall). Shirley and Susan now reside
separately in Carrollton, TX.
Russ lives in Ohio and is a trustee in the
MUSICIANS AFL-CIO (AFM)
