...grandparents Doug and Jackie attest to a softer, kindlier side to Drew. He was a trumpet player in the school band. "He couldn't wait for concerts," says Doug.

And many mornings Drew would get dropped off by his parents at their home to chat and sip hot chocolate while he waited for the bus.

One might envision a little girl frolicking in a meadow, picking wildflowers, in a series of exuberant freeze-frames--to opening credits, of course...
...smiles, as if she just told a good joke. Seeing a blank face, she presses harder. "Don't you know Wally's? It's famous. Everybody knows Wally's. Why, just yesterday we had Branford Marseilles come in here to drink a glass of wine and play. The trumpet player coming tonight is reviewed in the Arts section of today's Boston Globe. Yeah, Wally's is a great place...
