Dear Holly,
I don't know if you will remember me, Al Lawrence, but I was in your apartment a couple times, once with my daughter Jennifer who I wanted to meet Hugh almost 20 years ago.
I could never forget the day in about 1966, when I had called Charlie Macy to help me on a demo. He couldn't make it but recommended a "new guy" named Hugh McCracken to me. I said yes and that was the first time, but by no means the last, that Hugh did a session for me.
I read another note from Frank...

Happy times at Metro, NYC
What sad news! My thoughts are with Holly and both of their families and loved ones. Hugh was a regular fixture at the Metropolitan Café until it closed in 2006, and I thought I'd attach a pic I took from those great years. It's hard to imagine many that have been such a part of so much beautiful music!

Hughie was somebody who had eternal youth as well as great wisdom and humility. I walked a million miles in every one of his smiles. Hugs to all the family and friends!

Although we were neighbors for years and nodded to one another in passing, Holly, I was privileged to meet Hugh professionally on a very few occasions. Having deeply admired his work since I was a schoolgirl, I was struck by his quiet modesty and reserved intelligence. He was a rare musical bird, and I am sure you were so aware of his gifts. Deepest sympathy to you and your family--love, prayers... an impossibly unbearable personal loss; I hope there is some comfort that his music will...

My thoughts and prayers are with the McCracken Family. There's another great guitarist in Heaven today! His legacy will live on through his music.
