Song of Honor

Since 2001, Ltc. USAR, Ret., Philip Kowzan has played taps at 1,259 military honor funerals in the Spokane-area. And his service is in increasingly high demand. Kowzan, 77, knows of only three other bugler players and it's not unusual for him to play for three funerals in the morning, and another three in the afternoon. "I did seven one day," Kowzan said. "That's a lot."
