My parents just visited the Mayo Clinic in Rochester and, upon sending me pictures of the atrium and donated pianos, I immediately recognized them and recalled the Cowans video. I hope they are both doing well and are still playing every chance they get!

Your music, humour and enthusiasm is wonderful and a joy. I hope I am not too rude but can you help with the name of the tune you played in the third video – it reminds me a little like yellow rose of Texas. Thank you again for all the plesure you give.

I had the privilege of meeting Marlow/Frances Cowan 55 years ago when I was 10 years old in Des Moines, IA. They were the directors of the YMCA Boy’s Choir. I auditioned for the chorus which started a five year experience I still carry as an adult. Not only was it a great pleasure for me to be involved with such musical talent as the Cowan’s, they taught life’s lessons with God, Country and how to treat our Fellow Man. So many times over the years have I thought how wonderful these two wonderful people were in my life in the formative years.

God has blessed me and I ask God to continue blessing Frances and Marlow until they reach their eternal piano duets in Heaven.

Regards,

Clint

It lifts the spirits of patients who usually take a few minutes between appts. to clear their mind. I love it!! God bless those 2 with many more years! What a blessing!

I just LOVE watching your impromptu concert on YouTube! It warms my heart to see the way you and your wife interact! May God bless you with great health and many more birthdays to come! *hugs*

May your day be blessed with much happiness. Being in Gondola Building at Mayo sure puts me at ease when I am there for my appointments. I just wished I would have been there for the big duet!! Keep on enjoying life, and may God bless you with much health and happiness.

I hope you and your beautiful bride have many more joyous birthdays and celebrations today. I loved your piano playing duet at the Mayo Clinic. It really made my day. I was actually sitting in the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, FL when I first saw the video. It was such an inspiration and made my day. God bless you both.
