Passing of Bill Kap, Player Piano Dealer
By Jim Divoky

It was at Bill Kap's piano store I first got interested in mechanical
music.  He's been in the same location since at least the early 1960's.

  "Bill Kap was born on April 15, 1931 in Flint, Michigan and passed
  away on April 23, 2018.  He was a resident of East Cleveland for 20
  years and was the owner/operator of Bill Kap Piano since 1959.  He
  loved collecting music boxes and working at his store."
