Someone emailed me about a band called "Flame". They just returned from a performance in Athens, Greece and notably their lead singer sang 2 songs at Eunice Shriver’s private funeral. The interesting thing is Flame consists of 11 people who happen to have autism, Down Syndrome, mental retardation, blindness and other developmental and/or physical disabilities. They play classical, soft rock and even Pink Floyd. Cool, huh?
People are often capable of more than we expect. In addition to the link below for their web page http://www.flametheband.com/, you can hear their music on YouTube: https://mail01.paycor.com/OWA/redir.aspx?C=fc2eb5d74e4d487a8e9cb6c52d1c2e35&URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.youtube.com%2fwatch%3fv%3d6YR8ocSfusM
