Eric Willoughby, Peachtree Ridge HS Marching Band

"Watching our students and Pearl Harbor survivor enter the memorial was a memory I will never forget; my students were equally moved.  It was an extreme thrill to perform at the USS Battleship Missouri and in the Waikiki Holiday Parade - the most exciting parade in which I have been involved."
