Terry, Wim, List,

That would have been considerably more than a few years ago, Wim.  Russell,
Sr. served as the Piano Technicians Guild (PTG) president from 1979-1981.
(see list below)

I would venture to say, rather that his former tuner was president of a
local chapter, or this physician's memory runs like some customers' when
asked when the last time their piano was tuned  :)

Current PTG president:
Taylor Mackinnon, Oregon
