Gee.

As was said above, expected but a gut-wrenching shock anyway.

It's funny - ALL those reflections above of what Dick taught, gave, shared, made available, served as example - I'd have said all of them as well. Though not necessarily said as well as.

What I've very often remarked to others are things Dick taught me of music and also of how one might live life. Life changing lessons.

My sadness to you, Susan, and to All. And my pleasure at having known the man.
