Acappella group Quiet Storm grants singer's dying wish. Here singing "Just My Imagination"

When Classic Urban Harmony LLC got a phone message from Aseracare about a man in hospice care whose dying wish was to hear a doo wop acappella group sing one last time, Pam and I knew we wanted to help. Yes, we normally expect the groups we book to be paid, but this was an exception. Kelly Shaw explained that she had made numerous calls elsewhere but no one would return her calls. We returned her call immediately and assured her that we could find a group to volunteer to sing for this man. We called our friends, Quiet Storm, and of course they agreed. So, on Wednesday evening, January 10, we met Quiet Storm at the Golden Livingcenter-Rosemont in Bryn Mawr, PA, where they sang several songs acappella for patient, Charlie Frederico. Unknown to us prior to the visit, Charlie Frederico had himself once been an acappella singer with the local doo wop group, the Accords. Channel 6 & 17 News was there to record the event. The whole thing was very emotional. Thanks, Quiet Storm. We’re very proud of you. Here's Quiet Storm singing "Just My Imagination".

Wow!

class act

[@MsElaineLewis]

Very good!

[@adeleleeal]

Charlie, Pam & Quiet Storm: You are all very special people. Other groups chose NOT to fulfill the request because they were only looking for a "payday." They didn't even have the decency to return the call. You will be blessed for your selfless acts of kindness!

[@PHorner1]

Thank you Adele. We know that your group would have fufilled Charles's wish but we tried to get a group based in PA. We appreciate you!

[@adeleleeal]

And The Right Direction and I appreciate you and Charlie also!!

SO PROUD TO CALL CHARLIE & PAM CLOSE PERSONAL FRIENDS & "QUIET STORM" FRIENDS WITH Re-MemberThen ACAPELLA. IT IS A BLESSING TO CROSS PATHS WITH SUCH FINE PEOPLE & AN HONOR TO KNOW THEM. PEOPLE ASK THE HORNERS, "QUIET STORM" & US WHY WE CONTINUE TO SING & PROMOTE OUR MUSIC? THIS VIDEO SAYS IT ALL. IT IS THE LOVE OF THE MUSIC AND MANKIND. THIS IS WHAT SHOULD BE BROADCAST ON ALL THE MAJOR NEWS STATIONS - NOT ALL OF THE DEATH & VIOLENCE. I KNOW CHARLIE & PAM ARE VERY BUSY PROMOTING SHOWS, WRITING A BOOK AND ARTICLES ABOUT ARTISTS OF THE ERA AND PERFORMING MANY OTHER TASKS THAT RENOWNED HISTORIANS OF OUR MUSIC WOULD DO. I KNOW "QUIET STORM" REHEARSES MANY TIMES EACH WEEK TO PERFECT THEIR HARMONIES FOR ALL OF THEIR PERFORMANCES IN ORDER TO BE SPOT ON. YET, THEY FOUND TIME TO DO SOMETHING WONDERFUL FOR A FELLOW BROTHER. I BELIEVE THAT "IF IT COMES FROM THE HEART, IT CAN'T BE WRONG". YOU ALL HIT A HOME RUN AND IN MY BOOK,YOU ARE NUMBER 1!!!! FRANK CICERALE, Re-MemnerThen.

[@chorner1]

Thanks Frank. You know how greatly Pam and I value our friendship with you and Marian. When we got this request, there was never any question about how we'd respond. We said, "Of course we have a group to fulfill a dying man's wish." Then we hung up and made the call to arrange for this to happen. We called Quiet Storm, knowing they'd be happy to do this. But so would have Re-MemberThen or many of the groups we work with. Pam and I consider everyone in our acappella and doo wop circle to be like family. Thanks for the kind words. - Charlie & Pam Horner, Classic Urban Harmony LLC.
