I do remember the 4 he's and a she.

I played for "The Big German Band" at the Unter Uns and the Bavarian in the early 1970's. Was he in that band ? When ?

We played for drinks, which wasn't so cool because I was under age.

My Grandfather's half brother wrote some of the music and arranged most of it for them. So it was cool I got to play his music!
All I can remember was 4 Hes & a She. He was active with the Duncansville Methodist church & chorus. They have an "eternal flame" burning in the pulpit that is dedicated to him.
