It’s a known fact that the elderly and especially those with dementia or Alzheimers respond positively to the music that was part of their world for most of their lives. Today’s episode features two friends of host Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly, who have a long and productive history in southern gospel music. Danny Jones is vice president of The Singing News and Billy Blackwood is a singer/songwriter and son of the legendary James Blackwood and the Blackwood Brothers Quartet. Both hilarious and honest is the tri-alogue between these friends, who take gospel music and the hymns of the church seriously. They know the impact it makes on the aging.  www.theverandaministries.org
