Tom Grubb was such a quiet, unassuming person. Imagine the shock to Pleasant Valley Jr. High student body when Tom sat at the piano during a student talent assembly and performed a stunning classical piano piece. He went on to perform at WSU and eventually on the national and world stage. Tom had a great talent and a very funny sense of humor.
I had the pleasure and honor of playing piano duets and accompanying together with Tom. He accompanied mainly for Mr. Dehringer and I played mostly for Mrs John’s. What a kind, funny, sweet guy he was. I’ll never forget him...we shared such a special favorite mutual pasttime. And I so wish I had been able to hear him play a concert on his tour. I can imagine how awesome it was❣️
Kathy is so right on about Tommy as we called him at Pleasant Valley! Always great to be with and such a talent! Yes, I wish I had been able to see him later in life-I know how proud WSU was to have him there. I remember him at our ninth grade dance-great times!!! He was the punch pourer:)!
