Our family lived a few doors down from the Grants on St. James Street in London. Such fond memories of that neighborhood! I took private violin lessons from ‘Mrs. Grant’ for a number of years. These lessons took place in the front room next to the kitchen. There were interruptions during these lessons when the swinging door from the kitchen would fly open with one of the children wanting attention from Mom! Toni was always so patient, would answer a question, attend to a need and then carry on with our lesson. On a regular basis she organized recitals for her students. Chairs were set up in the second front room of the house for parents to come and hear their children’s progress in musical talent! Thank you ‘Mrs. Grant’ for the strong foundation and lasting appreciation of music, and wonderful memories of the St. James Street family connection.
With Love Mary Thuss (nee Sanderson)
