Leonard T. Zinn celebrated his 79th birthday on Dec.27th with loved ones here in Michigan and with phone calls from his children and friends in PA.
He was treated to a steak and salad dinner by myself on the 27th and to lunch on Sunday by my grandson, Paul and later that same day, dinner and a movie, by my youngest son, Scott and wife Marlene.
He spoiles all of us and we tried to spoil him a little.
Needless to say, he is a great asset to the non-pedal world of steel guitar.
We are totally proud of him and his terrific talent.
Happy Birthday L. T. We love you.

Happy Birthday!
You were one of the first steel players who influenced me during your 101 Ranch Boy's days.
It was very nice to meet you in Atlanta a few years ago.
Many, Many happy returns.

Happy Birthday!
When I was but a wee lad......I used to listen to your beautiful playing with those 101 Ranch Boys. As I recall, you used to
roll simple chords simply as background music between regular songs. It sounded like a C#min tuning, at least that's how my fading old memory recalls it. |

Hi L T,
Congratulations -- I always thought you were 59, give or take twenty years.
We always enjoy your many contributions in various steel guitar gatherings. The Aloha International SGC and the HSGA conventions especially appreciate your many activities,
ie., seminars, Emcee, backup playing, antics, jokes(?), and matchless steel guitar playing -- we never heard you sing, maybe we don't want to -- whatever.
Good Luck and enjoy the moment !!
Mahalo nui loa and me ke aloha pumehana !!
Warren
