Shhhhh -- let's keep this a secret for now, so please don't tell Felix about this yet!

This petition is to honor this ever-inspiring gentleman with a Proclamation of FELIX MAYERHOFER DAY in Palmdale, California! We need your signatures on this petition to present to the Palmdale City Council to make this happen. Please pass on and share this petition to any former students, coworkers, associates and family members who have been involved in Felix's life as a musician, teacher, band director, author, husband and father.

• Big Band Trombonist

• Juniper School Band Director and Music Instructor

• School Teacher

• Children's Book and Autobiographical Author

• 817 Friends on Facebook!

• All-Around Great Guy!

No event date has been set yet as this petition is the first step in the process of making this happen, so the sooner we get a LOT of signatures, the sooner we can make this happen!

It would be appreciated that, if you are members of a family, please have each person sign the petition separately with reference to a different, separate email address in order to maximize the number of signatures.

Thank you for taking the time to sign this petition – let's make this a great day for Felix!

The scale of this response is sufficient to move the proposal forward to the Palmdale City Council agenda. I am now drafting the formal petition packet and requesting a meeting with the city clerk to verify our submission requirements.

I was not a student of Mr. Mayerhofer, as I came to the Antelope Valley at 15. But I certainly felt his influence through his many students I have known over the years. The guidance and direction he's offered extends far beyond music and the classroom. It is deeply felt by everyone who has had the opportunity to know him. Mr. Mayerhofer is a great man deserving of such an honor.

I owe my and my children's' love of music to Mr M. His enthusiasm and excellent teaching skills instilled life-long music appreciation, and the fondest memories I have involve music making from 5th grade through college. He is a very special man and deserves this day!!

He made a huge difference in my life by introducing me to the world of music, which I in turn past on to my children and they did for theirs. A more deserving person you will not find.
