"Power Saws Can't Play The Polka" is the title of an article written about
my grandfather in 1983. Grandpa played the saw, entertaining friends
and family for over 6 decades. Not mentioned in the article is the fact
that Grandpa took several trips to Nashville. On one trip he managed to
get invited up on stage at the Grand Ole Opry to sit in with the band for
few songs. He was not a shy man. ;-)

Here's a copy of the article:

And the best dressed man in Chicopee, MA

As noted in the article, Grandpa eventually became a mason and home
builder. This is the house that he built for his family in 1930, fairly early in
his career. They lived in the basement while he was building the house in
the evenings and on weekends. Note the brickwork over the bay window.

Grandpa had a bigger bow...and was better dressed. ;-)

What a cool story! I wish that I could hear him play "the saw". Thanks
for sharing. I would love to see the Grand Ole Opry... some day.

I never knew my father's father. Grandma remarried after he passed, and
the man was several years grandma's senior; closer to the age of your
grandfather perhaps. He was born in 1920, and him and his brother built
his house, while my grandfather and his first wife lived in the cellar
after WW2. The tiny "apartment" is still down there. He was Italian,
and the kept the cellar kitchen as a "summer kitchen". I miss him as well.
