I volunteered at Dixmont. I remember this piano in a main area. It was played for the patients during our visits. During Christmas we would sing Xmas songs, give out bags of goodies and play games with the patients. It broke my heart to see some of the people just rocking back and forth in chairs, with no eye contact or emotions. There were a lot of people there that were abandoned by their families.
This photo stirs the memories I have of Dixmont and the happy music playing to sad faces.
