NextAvenue.org posted an interesting article about Senior Citizens and the value of music in their lives. The article was entitled, “Music Matters for Older Adults: Just ask these six people who are in their 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s

The title of this post came from Jan Fox’s words. Ms. Fox, 83,  in retirement “took up line dancing, which she now teaches, and then a friend suggested learning to play the ukulele. Fox, who lives in Austin, Texas, did just that….”

She even started a performance group.

Read all about Ms. Fox and the other five musicians who just happen to be seniors.
