Still missing you Dad. Always thinking about you - especially when I play music. Got two country songs on the radio. Hope you can hear them.

I still think of Del often, and treasure the banjo of his that Peg gave me after he passed away. Such wonderful memories of our times together. Every time I hear "Cripple Creek" being played on a banjo I think of Del.

I will always remember that Del was the one brave enough to give me banjo lessons. We always had such a good time playing music and singing. He was a fine gentleman, and a great friend and I will miss him so much. Peg, you and the family are in my thoughts and prayers as you go through this difficult time.
