While a student at what is now Minot State University, I served as choir director and radio soloist for one of the local churches. One Sunday during our live broadcast, I faced the ultimate test of keeping my composure when the pastor announced my solo: "Mr. Tornow will now sing the old Swedish hymn, 'Children of the Heavenly Father,' in memory of Gust Johnson who died at the request of his wife on January 18."
Fortunately, the accompanist came to my rescue by playing a long introduction -- enough time for me to stop laughing.
