Jo-Anne, one of the things that I do when one passes is to see if their voice goes on. It is the way that I know that folks haven't really left us, that they are with us in a real way. How sad it would be to know that when one breathes his/her last breath, all that they were and all that they did, died with them. The other side of that is the joy, just as you have shown us, when one realizes that their loved one lives on in the hearts of others. Little John is one of our most beloved members, and the years have not dimmed the memory of him. Rick Fielding was the friend of many here, and some of us spent considerable time with him. He used to talk of the Irish band he and John played in. He would joke about the Arran sweaters, and effecting phony Irish accents. He thought the world of John. And now the two of them are playing music together (told ya, Rick!!!).

God be good to the both of them.
