Wood Getting, Splitting, Sawing And Curing.
Page 5


In 1997 as my step son (Mike Strzelecki jr.) and I were driving past Rosenheimers cemetery, my step son noticed that a dying tree by the gate was marked for cutting. I asked if the tree was to be cut and if I could have the wood. Mr. Rosenheimer said it was to be removed, and that I could have the wood for instruments. The young trees on the left were planted to replace the dead one. Will they also be used for instruments some day??
