Community Karaoke

Halloween favorite “Monster Mash” was both David Noble’s and Karen Morris’ selection at Oct. 27’s karaoke party. The song was among those performed by 30 entertainers while folks ate hot dogs and ice cream.

Erika Greenwood was joined by a special guest, her son Lt. Col. Dan Edwin, who just retired from the Air Force after 30 years. Mother and son both have good voices and enjoy singing.

Trying to achieve perfect harmony is the goal for duet singers. It’s also great fun and a way to develop strong friendships with the people around you. Barbie May and Pat Paternostra had fun with “Only the Lonely,” while Ruby Johnson and Tony Tupas tried out “Beauty & the Beast.” And Gerry and Vilma Tagaloa did “Always on My Mind.”

Essie Hicks, Anna Le, Kenny Nortorleva and Bob Barnum are known for joining in with others. Shy singers who have a hard time singing solo would especially enjoy a duet.

Everyone is welcome to join the karaoke parties every Wednesday in Clubhouse 1 at 5:30 p.m. Practice sessions are held in Clubhouse 6 every Monday from 1-3 p.m. for folks trying to perfect their selections for that week’s performance.
