Re: FHS Band achieves All-Superior ratings at State Evaluations
Hank, I think you are thinking of Mr. Doug Harvel, who succeeded Mr. P. as band director at FHS and continued the 'All-Superior' tradition for about 10 more years there. It seems to me that Doug Harvel sold insurance with one of the independent agencies in Forest after he quit teaching. Mr. P.'s predecessor was also a very strong band director, Mr. Higdon Kenney, who became the band director at Provine High School in Jackson after leaving Forest and was very successful there as well. It seems to me that Mr. Kenney died young of some illness a few years after moving to Jackson. His daughter, Veronica, who was in my class in Miss Annie Antley's kindergarten and then first grade before they moved to Jackson, later became drum major of the Provine High School band. She played oboe and later yet became the principle oboist of a symphony orchestra in Massachusetts near Boston (a very musically gifted family!).
