I remember Mr. Magletta and his kind patient style. My dad bought an Olds Recording trumpet, which I still have. It was an expensive horn I remember and my mother blew her top when we came home with the beautiful instrument. I use to carry it from the Breen School to the Oliver School for marching band practice.

Al was my first teacher, and we spent 5 years learning to play the trumpet. He was kind and patient, and I always looked forward to our lessons. Bought an Olds Recorder from Metro that I still have, 65 years later.
