My grandfather, Paul Anish, always had a passion for music. Before his retirement, he worked as the music chairman at Seth Low Junior High School, sharing his passion with thousands. This baby grand piano traveled with him and his wife, my grandmother Pearl Anish, from house to house as they moved around Brooklyn through the years. Paul passed away last year at the age of 81, leaving the strings, hammers, and keys of this piano silent. It now rests in the living room of my grandmother's house, in stillness, reminding us of the love and music he brought to everyone he knew.
