Verna & daughter

Mrs. The Capt'n had to run out the house at the crack this morning to go to work. She went to the studio to work on her dissertation and then teach her voice students. Some people really have a grasp of that slippery elm called discipline, and we here at Team Shredder salute her. In so many ways she is the Team role model.

Speaking of role models, here is a picture of Mrs. The Capt'n's mom, Verna Van Solkema. --->

Today marks the 7th anniversary of her passing on to better parties.

Not only looking beautiful but also sounding beautiful, Verna sang with the LA Opera before stepping off the stage to have two brilliant muscian children, Juli and Pieter.
As
Mrs. The Capt'n was clicking out the house on her fierce work heels, I sleepily asked her if it would be alright if I put up something about Verna, and she smiled and said yes.
