Letters to the Editor

To the Editor:

The headline on page 6 of the August 6 Nugget should be plural: "Sisters pianist(s) called exceptional."

Donna Moyer is an exceptional pianist, teacher, accompanist, musician, and all around good person. That dear woman has helped more people in the Sisters community to appreciate, perform and bring music into their lives than there are bristles on a porcupine.

If Cammi Benson rises to become a greater star in the world of music than she already is, you can bet your bottom dollar that Donna Moyer will be one of the rocks upon which she will be standing.

My personal moments with Donna were when she played piano for the choirs I sang in, and when she assisted and accompanied my daughter, Miriam when she sang in Corvallis at a musical event for young people like Cammi.

Thank you, Donna for the thousands of hours you have spent helping young (and old) people to appreciate, learn and perform music. You are what makes the Sisters area the wonderful place it is to live in.
