Organ Lessons

About the Book

Bill was only five years old when he first learned to play the piano. His fascination for this introduced him to the organ, the instrument that he fell in love with. By the time he reached the end of fifth grade, he was playing for weddings, funerals, and other services on a regular basis when the organist couldn’t be there.

This passion became the key to achieving his dreams as a young boy, but this also introduced him to the person who made his childhood a traumatic phase in his life.

The new choir director was a tall, handsome man in his mid-thirties. His body was in great shape because he had worked for the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He was the kind of man anyone would naturally admire and respect. He seemed interested in finding more about Bill, listening intently to the young boy’s stories and occasionally driving him home.

Bill on the other hand, started to pour his heart to him. With a terrible environment in his home, Bill was glad to finally have someone in his life who wanted to help him. He eventually labeled him as Mr. F, the “F” standing for “father substitute”, or “friend”. But their friendly relationship suddenly swerved when Mr. F, the mature man whom the young boy trusted, kissed him and ordered that they keep their “new relationship” between the two of them. This was only the start of the sexual relationship the young boy naively had with his choir instructor.

A stirring memoir filled with insights and eye-opening facts, Organ Lessons follows Bill as he dealt with the molestation he faced in the hands of the man whom he invested friendship with. It is a shocking tale of a child who was being corrupted, without his full knowledge—a tale happening somewhere in the world at this very moment.
