Meet Lenora
Lenora has always maintained a quiet, gentle spirit since she was a small child. She has a love of music which started early at the age of 3 on the piano. Lenora has used her musical skills extensively throughout her life and has performed in exciting places around the world!
Lenora's passions are piano and clarinet, traveling, reading and learning new things, animals, but she cannot forget one of her personal favorites....PEANUT BUTTER! Her family used to catch her in the act of leaving "stripes" in the family jar from using her finger to sneak a bite.
She has been known to be a "can-do" person, who believes there is goodness in everyone which makes her perfect for teaching young children. Lenora currently teaches elementary choir/classroom music in the Clovis Unified School District.

Meet Jeff
Jeff is one of those people who is not only talented and creative, but innovative and unique; he has more sides than a Rubik's cube. You might even say he's quirky.Come on! He was born on Friday the 13th!
Jeff's passions are music composition, art, and traveling, with music being the greatest of them all. He's been known to wake up in the middle of the night and go to the piano to pen a melody from a dream he had. Jeff would say that music allows him to express thoughts and emotions that mere words cannot express. This love and passion for music can only be surpassed by his love for his future wife, Lenora.
Jeff currently works as a clothing specialist for Nautica at Macy's.

How it all began...
Jeff and Lenora were from the same small town, Reedley, for ALL of their elementary school and high school band years, but had never "marched" in the same direction! In junior high, they had even been placed side by side in a picture, but had NO idea then that they would be eventually side by side for life!
Jeff came to the Reedley First Baptist church to be the church's Music Minister. As fate would have it, this was the same church that Lenora had been tinkling the ivories on for many years. Finally there would be someone to play duets with whenever Lenora wanted to. The story goes that an "ingenious invention" helped the two to finally go on their first date.
It was only a matter of time before the two musicians would find that they were not only a good match musically, but with like family backgrounds and spiritual values.
Let the music play!
