Pastor Phil,
The first part we covered when we met last week, the second part is new so I thought I would inform you and Jane at the same time
 
Jane,
1.    I called earlier but Tim said you were out so I thought I'd send it to you so I didn't leave out any details.  We can talk about it further tonight too.   Mr. Timms at BHP recommended Tiffany Goff as a piano player.  We have practiced a few times already and it seems like she will be a good fit.  She will play this Sunday morning only and as long as things go well she will play for us the 24th and going forward both AM and PM.  We will pay her but not nearly as much as we paid in the past.  We will pay her $100.00 a month using a 1099.  This month since she will have played 2 sundays and practiced several times, we will pay her $50 for June. 
 
 2.   Hazen Bannister came out yesterday to tune the piano (I put the invoice in your office with some other receipts).  He was able to fix the stuck key and tune the piano. While he was here, he mentioned that he had installed the sound system years ago so I told him about the problems we had been having with volume and sound quality.  As we investigated, it seems that there is a problem with the sound board and surprisingly the mounted speaker on the piano side of the church is almost totally blown. We are getting very little sound out of it so any sound that side of the church is getting is coming from the other speaker and platform monitors.  He is pretty sure that it was a lightning strike or power surge and probably happened months ago.   The speaker can be repaired but the board will need to be replaced.  I talked to the insurance company and it looks like they will cover it.  Mr. Bannister will have to submit an estimate and an affidavit that in his professional opinion it was lightning damage, which he is prepared to do.  Of course, we will have to pay the $500 deductible but that is better than paying the full price. 
 
If either of you has questions let me know.
 
Thanks,
PA
