Kathryn took Mima & Papa to the Wagon Trails Safari in Youngstown, Ohio in August of 2017.

Rick Thomas of Obsolete Video Services rebuilt this Ampex CVR-75 so it works like new.

Many members of our family have been blessed with musical talent and good voices. For Thanksgiving 2024, my daughter had an idea that a few of us could sing something together. With just a bit of rehearsal, this is the result.

Granddaughter Kathryn "Kat" Drovdlic sings three songs in this voice recital.

My oldest grandson Matthew graduated from Wittenberg University in June 2024, with a bachelor's degree in Communications and Digital Media.

Grandson Matthew Drovdlic was given a short trumpet solo to play to open this concert piece. He's playing a 1937 Martin Handcraft Imperial trumpet that was originally played by my father, Paul Melvin. I played it in high school and college. Three generations playing the same horn!

Grandson Nathaniel Drovdlic is a key man in the percussion section of this March 2017 Middle School band concert.

Grandson Matthew Drovdlic playing trumpet in a March 2017 band concert at his high school. He is playing my Dad's 1937 Martin Handcraft Imperial trumpet, which is now his. He's a 3rd Generation trumpeter, all of us playing the same horn!

Matthew celebrates his 15th Birthday and his dad Bob celebrates his 47th. Grandmother Marge Drovdlic prepared a very unique treasure hunt for Matthew to find his last gift.

Richard ("Papa") and Linda ("Mima") were married on September 7, 1968.

Here's a promo video I made for my nephew Sam Gast back in 2016. Sam was a very talented baseball player.

My granddaughter Kathryn "Kat" Drovdlic sings the National Anthem at the 2024 Hilliard Bradley High School "Cheerfest." This was the first time she ever sang in front of a large crowd like this.

On Sunday November 26, 2023, about 19 former members of the Wade Raridon Singers ( thesingers.org ) gathered at the home of Marty Young for some fellowship and a little music. It was good to get together again and make a little music. We ended all of our Christmas concerts with this lovely lullaby. Many more audio clips are on the Wade Raridon Singers web site: thesingers.org
