Songwriter Howard Perdew, at left, and also in a favorite family photo with his three-year-old grandson John William. The old piano was a gift, Howard said, and it sounds terrible so he doesn't want to train the little one's ear the wrong way. He is being careful about what John William plays on it. He doesn't push his grandson, but Howard said, "he's got music in him from head to toe." He can already make up his own songs and can learn just about any song that Howard tries to sing with him.
