| It all started because of this man's influence. This is their Dad who, even though he was left handed, played right-handed stringed instruments by turning them upside down, and taught them how to make music. Pickin' under the shade tree was a common occurrence at the Owens house. |
| R.C. sang, played guitar, mandolin, and fiddle, and wrote several songs. In his younger days, he performed with his bluegrass band on WFOM AM radio. |
