A native son of Harbor City, Ca., gone far, far, too soon. You left us all with beautiful, and positive, music (i still listen to those records). Life should have been kinder, but who knows, maybe life was.

My most sincere condolences to the family. Consider just one of God's many expressions of care for us: You will call me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. (Jeremiah 29:12) Yes, our Heavenly Father has always been willing to listen to those who humbly turn to him in prayer. May your heartfelt prayers to God bring you peace and comfort in your time of sorrow.
