Leo Lonnie Piitz & LeRoy


Leo "Lonnie" Piitz played his accordion and entertained this afternoon at the Brookdale facility here in Seward. He has a general farming operation in the Brainard area. His wife works in David Ciry and they have 4 daughters. He has a Polka band & always seems to enjoy telling us of what is going on in their family.  The girls are all involved with music lessons and the oldest, a Junior in HS is thinking of college courses that would prepare her to be a music teacher and band director in schools.

One of the highlights of his program is giving LeRoy a chance to sing Praha with the accordion. I ask that he play the "Saddle Horse Polka" which Le Roy also sang. He likes to end his program with everyone singing, "You are My Sunshine" which is always popular. There was a large crowd there today and all seemed to enjoy it
