One of the great momments at each Old Songs event I attended was the conversations with Sandy. I amparticularly reminded of his story of Grant Rogers funeral.
    Grant was a great story teller, fiddler, singer, song writer and historian from the Catskills. And he was one of many people Sandy had the pleasure to record and come to know at Folk Legacy. At Grant's funeral, with a room full of musicians for what ever reason there was no music at Grant's funeral.
    Sandy was obviously sad for his friend Grant as he told me the story and he said with a smile to me, "I know there will be music at mine."
   I remember I said, "Mine too, Sandy."

My condolences to his family, especially to Caroline, and to us all, we will miss him.
