Bill Hawkins,
Jeff Hardy, the younger brother of folk bard Jack Hardy, was also killed in the World Trade Center on 9/11. Jeff was a great guy and a great bass player who toured with Jack for many years before taking a straight job as an executive chef for one of the big companies located in the WTC.
Jeff was always happy to play with lots of other folks. He backed me up a couple of times when I played guest sets at the Speakeasy around 20 years ago.
Knowing someone who was killed in the tragedy, even a casual friend that I hadn't seen in a long time, really personalized 9/11 for me. I can appreciate your pain and you certainly have my sympathy.
