the Loss of Michael Krumrey. On October 5, 1998 Michael Krumrey died. Michael was Celia’s accompanist (he played the guitar.) He had some heart trouble and died in his sleep. Michael was 29. If you saw Celia sing during the last 5 years, the odds are great that Michael was with her. He played beautifully and is missed. Memorial information is available on Celia’s new album, or by replying to this email asking for information about the Michael Krumrey scholarship.
