Having begun losing her hearing due to spinal meningitis as a toddler, our aunt Agatha mentioned to her parents that she couldn't hear her favorite musical record playing on the phonograph and asked them to turn up the volume. This was the first indication that her parents knew of Agatha's loss of hearing.
Later, at her wedding to Wm.J.Rickard III, {who, by the way, was also deaf since the age of 16} her groom had that same record played at the ceremony. Many years after that, at her funeral, WJR III had this song played once again in her memory.
The song: "Angel Serenade".
