I cannot artfully arrange my phrases so as to give light and shade. Neither am I a painter; Nor can I even express my thoughts by gesture and pantomine, for I am no dancer. But I can do so in sounds. I am a musician. -Wolfgang Amadeus MozartArrangements under the direction of Gilbreath Funeral Home of Stanton. Online condolences can be made at: www.npwelch.com,
