Okay, if only I could find David Murray's book, I'd be able to sort this
out, but darned if I can find it right now.

Here's the question - someone asked me and I just don't recall.

Kim Hopper and Taranda Greene are sisters... but someone remind me, what
was their maiden names, and were they part of a singing family?

Thanks,

Wes

Kim and Taranda are not sisters. Sister in laws. Kim's maiden name is
Greene.

Chuck is right Taranda Kiser married Tony Greene and Tony is a brother
to Kim (Greene) Hopper

Well I found David's book and I was SO OFF TRACK on this one. You're right,
they're sister in laws.

Okay now help me on this. Tim has / had a rare brain disease. Am I correct
that he no longer performs and limits his activity to his studio?

Now the matter or Tony. He is suffering from kidney failure... but am I
correct this is a result of exposure to black mold to which he is apparently
highly allergic?

Someone fill me in.

And lo, did *Willy* did scribe these words:

Excuse me, folks, but the plural of sister-in-law is *sisters*-in-law (and don't
forget the hyphens), same as with any in-law; father(s), mother(s), brother(s),
etc.

Blame my mother, the ex-English teacher.

Tim's health problems are connected to the mold, not Tony's.

Tony's lucky he proposed to Taranda that night at NQC 2000. You should
have how that girl was smiling at me earlier in the evening.

No comments from the peanut gallery. :-P

Taranda has a great personality, as well as being a wonderful singer.
We talked to her at a singing before she and Tony were married.

That should read "You should have seen how that girl was smiling".

You're quite right and I accept the reproof with the sharpest, yet kindest, of
needles. Given what I said, I should've known better.

I could've said "the *late*, former English teacher", but that would've been too
much of a bummer.

Feel better now?

Rev Ozone, my post to you was a joke.

I don't know what Ken got so upset about.
I do think he might have finally run out of exclamation marks this
time, though.

Taranda is such a cutie. I got her pic at the NQC but didn't really get to
chat with her. My wife is also a fan or her singing style, so it's all
GOOD! LOL

James:

So Tim's health problems were a result of mold? With that being the case,
anyone know if Tony's current health situation was a result of anything,
other than bad genes? I understand he's on dialysis?

Nah, I don't take regionalism into account on such matters so I don't consider
it a reflection on the geographical origin of your upbringing.

But it appears none of us know the reason why?

You could tell he just felt lousy at the NQC... he actually brought a chair
on stage and sat down at times when he wasn't singing such as during
Tiranda's solo's etc... you could tell he was pushing himself hard to be
there.

Hate to hear that. The few times I've met him, he seems to be a very
outgoing and joyful person...the type of guy that says "thank you"
when you ask him to pose for a pic or sign a CD.

I thought they were sister-in-laws. I was thinking that Kim Hopper is Tony Greens sister, and Taranda married Tony Green'
