Choir leader retires on a high note

Day, who until Jan. 1 had directed the choir for most of 50 years, was hearing the song for the first time. In fact, it was the premiere performance of “Sing Your Song Through Me,” a song written with Day in mind and dedicated to her.

The song was the “perfect gift” for a woman who had dedicated much of her life to music and a ministry of song. The gift was given by the choir and the church members at a special reception Jan. 28 at the church.
