Mary and Al Kalbfleisch were both born in Washington D.C., but grew up in the suburbs. When they were kids, they tilled the land for food during WWII, went on to do the usual academics with the help of the GI Bill, settled in Connecticut, raised two kids, then retired to Wyoming. They then felt the need, as part of their new lives here, to give support to organizations serving the community. It was time to give back. Music has been a large part of this: The Old Time Fiddlers, the Casper Fiddle Club, the Wyoming Fiddlers Association, District No. 4. They've also volunteered for the Nicolaysen Art Museum and the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Clara is their youngest grandchild. She was born on April 3, 2006, at Los Angeles Presbyterian Hospital, under a dark cloud that only medical technology can predict. All tough journeys bring forth a hero — Clara's mom, Kate. More than ever, Kate fills their hearts with admiration.
