She said she sat for him as a tiny baby and "can vouch for the above statement." She wrote: "I thought I could never love another child as I did him. He was a great organist and played at most of the family weddings." Maylon graduated in 1958 from South Side High School in Elmira NY. He went on to study organ at Ithaca College. He had various churches he played for, but his favorite by far was St. Thomas at Slaterville Springs where he served as an organist for 23 years.
