In a La Crosse Tribune letter to the editor, Feb. 5, 2009 Bill Miller expressed his gratitude to the La Crosse Community...
“Thank you, La Crosse. I would like to thank the entire La Crosse community for its continued support of my career over these many years. I share this Grammy award with you and look forward to coming home soon to celebrate. It all started at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse in my first band, Morning Star, The Freighthouse and then the move to Nashville. The Coulee Region is still a place of refuge for me. Thank you to the La Crosse Symphony Orchestra and the Tribune. I’ve recorded two Grammy-winning CDs in La Crosse with my dear friend and co-producer, Michael Von Muchow. Let’s not stop now. Blessings to all.
— Bill Miller”
