I never knew the details, but I met Amelia several years ago when she came with Bob and Deana over to one of the Ossian house concerts (in Loudon, NH). It sounds like you got a good conversation in, though. Amelia is still my favorite waltz, and one of the most popular here on the West Coast, too. That is a good story!
