Every quartet has their favorite Valentine stories, but here’s a little twist that only started on Valentines day from Doug Drew of the Ottawa, Ontario Chapter.
Doug’s quartet. A Special Event, in their finest outfits, had delivered several Singing Valentines during the morning and stopped for some lunch at a Pizza Parlor. When finished eating, naturally we sang to their waitress. The man behind the Take-Out counter asked about the quartet and Doug gave him their business card. Shortly after, this man hired them to deliver Birthday Greetings, with a Rose and Chocolates, to his wife as she instructed her Aerobics class at a local Community Center.
“While I did not see her, a lady in the class recognized me from work, and gave my name to another lady in the class.” Doug writes. In a few days he received a call from this lady to sing at her husband’s Birthday Party. A party guest asked for their card.
