Hi Arlan,
 
sorry the subject is sad.
Kalman Detrich (age 72) passed away out here  on Sunday June 8 at Easton 
Hospital a few blocks away from my shop. I'm  sure this loss will be felt by many 
New York Chapter members and friends as  well others in the world of pianos. 
Services will be held Friday,  June 13 at 11am in the James B. Gaffney Funeral 
Home, 314 South First  Street, Bangor, PA. Call Friday from 10-11am in the 
funeral home. Burial  will be in the St. John's Cemetery, Bangor. Bangor is aprox 
an hour and twenty  minutes out Route 80W or Route 78W from the city when 
there is not much  traffic.
It was a shock as I was planning to attend his  scheduled talk on the history 
of the American Piano at the Slate Belt  Heritage Center on Thursday 
(tomorrow). He  was active to the end, and will be, I'm sure, most remembered for the 
Museum  of the American Piano which he was founder of and Executive  Director.
This is a sad loss for our Guild and the  industry, he was such a leader and 
mentor.
The obituary appeared in the Tuesday, June 10,  2008 edition of the Easton 
Express-Times on page B-4. It is  available at _www.lehighvalleylive.com_ 
(http://www.lehighvalleylive.com/) . click on  Obituaries in the left hand column, 
then Kalman Detrich.
Due to my flight plans for the Anahein  Convention I will not be able to 
attend the services.
Please inform the friends of Kalman  Detrich.
 
Thank you, 
Chris Solliday  nervp
