The piano was donated Friday (Mar. 28) to the college Music Department by the Lerblances. The donation is a tribute to Richard's mother, Alyce Knight Lerblance who was an Eastern graduate and is a music enthusiast. "We are excited about this donation and what it will mean to our music students for many years to come," Eastern President Dr. Steve Smith said. "We appreciate everthing the Lerblances do for our college."
