My heart is breaking but so filled with Tony’s Musical genius he has provided for an entire soundtrack of my life.
I used to know his pianist Lee S.
Can you please tell him I am trying to contact him. My name is Heather Dolan and I’m from Rue 57. I became ill and had to move home to my family home in Northern Va outside Washington DC.
Hello Heather,
I’m not affiliated with Tony Bennett’s organization in any way — I’m just a fan, so unfortunately I can’t help with your request.
My heart is breaking too, but I take great solace in knowing that because of his recordings, we will always have him in our lives.
Sincerely,
