Chuck Summers, whose mellow voice just finished singing “Blue Moon,” invites Anna Mae Spallinger to take a bow...and she does.

During his singing, Anna Mae exited her chair, walked to the front, and began to dance along to his singing the 1934 ballad, pleasing the 50 Vancrest residents who came to hear Chuck sing and play the sax.

Sommers appeared at Vancrest for the first time on Wednesday performing old songs, gospel, and toe-tapping music.

He’ll be at The Inn from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 2 for the JazzINN, which takes place in the lobby. He has performed with James Brown and has travelled with several well-known jazz groups.

He currently resides in Lima where he plays in the praise and worship band at Only Believe Ministries.
