Sue Draheim From: Peter Kasin There was a wonderful concert in her honor - all proceeds for her and her partner's expenses - earlier this month, at the Freight & Salvage coffeehouse. The concert was a gathering of the folk and classical scene in the Bay Area going back many years. |

It's one of my favorite recordings largely because of her playing with her lovely, round tone and lyrical phrasing. It seems she had a varied and interesting career and remained on the music making end of the business. Rest easy and thanks. |

She worked part time at a local record shop and one day I brought something to the counter to buy and she said "Good album. I'm on that." I had known her from my record collection for many years but didn't recognize her and never knew she worked in my favorite record shop. Thank you for all the music Sue. You'll be missed. David E. |

A revelation in what pure expression could be. No ego/pure voice. Wish I'd told her. |

I have been friends with Golden Bough for a long time and they stayed with me here in the Netherlands while Sue was with them. A lovely lady and a great musician. One of those special people that you sometimes have the good fortune to meet. Condolences to all who knew her. |
