A belated if not thoughtful Happy Mother’s Day 2024 reflection: Mama June McLemore, Dr. Mary McCoo, Mrs. Sarah LaRue…LaMonte‘s, Marilyn‘s and Florence‘s cherished mothers who made a major impact on their life’s ethic, not to mention Billy‘s mother, who was instrumental in taking her young son to cultural events like at the Muny Opera House in St. Louis, shaping his musical tastes early on. LaMonte says, “We all came from great mothers, who instilled values in us, they were the foundation of The 5th Dimension.” He added chuckling, “That’s why none of us were ever late for the plane or anything else!” There are more heartwarming stories to tell about these women, but today, we honor the memory of these strong and graceful special ladies.
On a personal note, I thank Florence, Marilyn & Billy, and LaMonte & Mieko for their continued prayers and caring communications with concern to my 88-year-old mother’s health and comfort. We are indeed, “5th Family.” —Robert-Allan Arno, Forever 5th Dimension
