~Dance~
This page is dedicated to my Uncle Joe Kruemmer who just loved to dance.
My dad used to tell me that Uncle Joe sneaked in several times and
danced on American Bandstand during the shows early years in Philadelphia.
At my cousin's wedding, Uncle Joe danced all night long during the reception.
My dad said, "Brother Joe inherited the dancing feet" and well...my dad...couldn't dance one lick~!
