person(s) who made off with your sax(es), and other valuables.

Nice hearing you are back up and running musically,
thanks in-large-part to a really successful ‘Go Fund Me’ campaign.

I hope to call on YOU in case I need musicians for a ‘Cali’ tour that is loosely in the works (side-hint to my good buddy John Moore)

MALA WALDRON

Your past experience of car-stalling in a NYC flood…
water up-to-your-chest; and non-operable windows and doors
alarmed the heck out of ME just reading about it!

Thank goodness the “glass-breaker” tool your daughter had gifted you facilitated your escape from the car in the nick-of-time!!!

I immediately retrieved from my glove compartment
the “glass-breaker” tool I had been previously gifted,
and velcro-ed it within easy reach…just in case.

Everybody, check MALA WALDRON out at

of a giant tree that crashed through the ceiling.

“Help! When I Needed” was:

#1. A higher power had me
leave the room
before the tree crashed through!

#2. Though it took nearly 2 years to totally complete all renovations, the insurance company did the right thing!
