    My mother once told me her uncle was friends with some members of the Bills, so close that they attended his funeral in Elkhart, IN in the early 80’s or so. I’m not sure if your father was one of his friends or not, I’m not sure how they met or any other specifics. What an amazingly talented group, I could listen to them for hours!!

    Vern Reed (tenor) and Al Shea (lead) were with the group from its inception in 1947 until the quartet broke up in 1967. Hershel Smith (baritone) was replaced by Dick Grapes in 1948; Grapes was replaced by Scotty Ward in 1957. Bill Spangenberg (bass) was replaced by Jim Jones in 1962. Spangenberg (d.1963), Shea (d.1968), Ward (d.1988), Reed (d.1992), and Smith (d.2007) are no longer with us. Jones and Grapes are still alive and well.

    Why does this song Lida Rose always make me tear up? It’s just so simple and beautiful.

    Not only do I love the Buffalo Bills, I LOVE the slide at end of the tag on Alexander’s Ragtime Band. These boys really knew how to blend!
