Big Rupe & Virginia City Julie
Rupert Ronald "Ronnie" Rose entertains guests in the Sage Room of Harvey's Wagon Wheel Saloon around October 1958. As "Big Rupe," he plays Virginia City Julie, a refurbished Comstock-vintage piano from St. Mary's in the Mountains Catholic Church in Virginia City, named after the famous Virginia City courtesan Julia Bulette.
So many great memories
Well remember Dave Rowner (?sp ) waving his drumstick in greeting as we sailed past the check-in station at TOTW. So sorry that we have lose those who are so talented while being great human beings. Glad to know that Ron had such a wonderfrul, loving family and that he had the time to watch his tomatoes grow. I have always tried to do the important thing and memories of Top of the Wheel are recalled with a very special import.
On behalf of the entire Evans family I wish you all the best. My dad Hugh was ever a fan ( passed way far to early in 1983 ) and sister Cindy still plays piano when called upon.
Take care and know that we respected and loved RR.
