She Flew..........................

Tie two birds together.
They will not be able to fly,even though they now have four wings

[HAKIM SANAI]

My Mum Died At 7 pm Last Night.

This Is A Photo Of Her Taken By The Halifax Evening Courier in 1983.

I was quite embarrassed & puzzled about it at the time.

She had left the Budgie's cage open &;the living room window open.It had flown away......................!I really do not know what she was thinking of? She lived very near the Newspaper Building.Perhaps she hoped the bird had flown in and perched on the Editor's desk?

Anyway.She was appealing to the readers to report any sightings.

More innocent times.These day the local paper is full of Murders &;; Drugs Raids......................

6 months after this photo was taken My Dad died suddenly.............................

I have prettier photos&;stories&memories of This Beautuiful Woman...........but this story seems so poignant to me today.

I got a great Email yesterday From Champion Jack Duprees grandson.Just a few corrections regarding my post on October 17th 2006
Jack didnt live in Ovenden,Halifax until his death.He & his wife moved to Hanover.Divorced &
He therefore died in Germany (not Halifax as I had said).
The KKK burned alive both Jack,s parents.
The Childrens Home Jack was brought up in wasnt run by Louis Armstrong (as i said!).Rather, Louis was himself an orphan at the same place (only at a later date)
Also, The Anniversary of Jack's death is on the 21st of this month.
William Thomas Dupree was, in my 'Umble Opinion, one of the finest Bluesmen ever recorded.It is also a matter of great Pride to me that he lived part of his great life in my hometown of Halifax.
Here is The Illustrated Champion Jack Dupree Discography .
Here is Champion in His Pomp.
