Awe so cool I play the same style Mr. Mainer did just a thumb and index finger. It is a brilliant and gentle style great for singing! I really love that Mr. Holt values old time music and tries all he can to save it.

I used to play music with JE Mainer's daughter Mary. She was a fine lady and loved to sing while playing on her guitar. I would accompany her playing the fiddle. Mary as with about all these older folks is gone on now. I sure miss her friendship.

Wade will be 103, on april 21,2010, and julia, will be 91, in february ?, 2010. They still sing at their Church, in Flint, MI. They ought to be featured on Steve's Hartmans Assn.America on CBS news ! Everyone should write Steve Hartman.
