We regret to inform our membership that member Linda Gurney (Seiferth) passed away on 5/4/23. She was a member of SLSOYO and went on their first European tour in 1976. She was the co-principal clarinetist.
She continued her music career on clarinet and on piano playing great jazz.
She was dedicated to her family, her music, helping others and loved the Cardinals.
Linda will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
Our thoughts are with her family.
We will try to post when we know arrangements.
