Drummer Boy: a Glimpse into the Life of Dinerral Shavers

Drummer Boy: A Glimpse Into The Life of Dinerral Shavers is a personal memoir about my brother, Dinerral Shavers. Dinerral was a member of the world renown Hot 8 Brass Band. He was a teacher and mentor to all those he touched. The book gives a glimpse into his life from birth until his untimely death on December 28, 2006. My perspective provides readers with a sense of being in New Orleans during Katrina and the actions before, during and after Dinerral's death. I hope this book helps the families of victims of crime heal and find a purpose for remembering their loved ones.
