Subject: OBIT: Dick Fegy
I just read in my latest Acoustic Guitar mag. that Dick Fegy passed away last Dec. 21 at his home in So. Cal. He was an exceptional multi-instrumentalist who became rather well-known playing with David Bromberg. It says he was 51 years old. I played with Dick a couple of times at Pasadena Traditional Music Saturday jam sessions. He was a nice, quiet little guy, quite unassuming, and he told me that he had to give up the guitar and just play banjo because of some problem like carpel tunnel syndrome. But to die at age 51....does anybody know what the heck happened here?
