At the end of the summer, we will bid farewell to our organist, Norman Jenson. Norman is finally retiring from regular church music after a long career as an organist, pianist, and college professor. I have had the privilege of working with Norman several times a week for nearly 20 years and will miss him terribly! We will celebrate Norman at the choir's last service of the season, on June 5. Norman will continue to play until sometime in August, when we plan to have a new organist in place. For all of us, Norman (but especially from me), THANK YOU for the dedicated service, extraordinary musicianship, and unmatched generosity you bring to everything you do. "Well done, thou good and faithful servant"!
