My dear great grandfather... I wish you were still alive so you can see me become in the show business.. You would've been so proud of me. We will all miss you RIP Leonard Reed 🙏 -Melody

This is wonderful! He was a great speaker. It was such a joy to listen to him talk about the old days. His ability to recall details, even into his late 90s was astonishing. I once took a Shim-Sham class from him, it is one of my fondest memories from my many years of dancing.

Hi doreen, how are you? I loved this video and I think it’s a rarity. hearing this story told directly by the creator of shim sham is an honor. This video is a gift! Could I subtitle the video in Portuguese for the tap dancers from Brazil? (Giving your credits) I would love to do this. Thank you so much

I can’t remember the date but about a year before he died. Jay Clark was going to visit with him so I sent him with my camera. This took place in his house surrounded by all of the historical VHS tapes. He was just the best❤️
