It's hard to think of what else to say about Jonathan, so many of you have said so much.   I was quite in awe of Jonathan when we first joined FSGW. He was very much part of the elite. I didn't always understand his references or get his jokes but boy did I enjoy hearing him sing.

Later through the Washington Folk Festival we spent quite a bit of time together and I like to think we were friends. I was not longer intiminated by him and felt free to express opinions that didn't always mesh with his.

He gave bruce and me one very special gift; A song "Daniel's Hand" to celebrate the birth of our first son. Daniel is now 25. (How can that be, bruce and I are still young!). Some years later at a recording session at the Patons the group recorded it for us. Just thinking about it brings back so many memories.

We have missed Jonathan for many years and will continue to do so.
