Subject: RE: A year, already - Raise a glass to Rick
Justa, what would you put on a memorial page for Rick?

It isn't there (in my opinion), not because Jeff doesn't care enough but because he cares too much. A stark page with a picture and dates... it wouldn't be enough, it wouldn't be right, and it would be done. So what would you put on the page?

As far as the thread getting little response, I think some people feel bad Rick's gone, but just didn't know him that well, while others may just not feel like talking.

The show sounded to me like the sadness is losing ground to the joy in music and life that Rick inspired and was inspired by. This is good.
