In fact, I had made up my mind to follow it as a career. At that time I had the great privilege of listening, for the first time, to the Thatcher Orchestra I was thrilled.

For several years he was director of music at the Preston Academy and later teacher of vocal and instrumental music at Rigby high school, Rigby, Idaho.
