Thanks to those of you who joined Region 15 as we celebrated the beautiful, creative, influential, and inspirational life of Renee Craig.
We gathered virtually on Facebook Live on Friday, July 31. Lori Britt-Horvath and Jean Schoenlank (Region 15’s Team Coordinator and Education Coordinator) served as our hosts for the evening. We spoke with members of Renee Craig’s family, as well as friends from across her exceptional barbershop life -- from The Cracker Jills (Queens of Harmony 1957), the Coronet Club, Ramapo Valley Chorus (Three-time International Champions: 1979, 1986, 1990), and Sweet Adelines International.
