Barbersharps sing to honor Betty Howard
Placeholder Image
It was 40 years ago when Betty Howard first formed a harmonious all-female singing group called The Barbersharps. For decades, the group was extremely active with local performances – even singing for the governor at Opryland Hotel – before disbanding around three years ago when Howard gave up the position as director.Now 78 and at NHC, Howard had a special Christmas wish. She wanted to hear The Barbersharps sing again.Despite not practicing in years, group members were quick to grant Howard her wish.
