Oh Thiel, I just found your obituary today March 1st. I've known you since the mid sixties when you became the steel guitar player in my Dad and Mom's - Everett and Gloria Phister - country band "The Buckskins" along with Larry Banks at lead guitar and me struggling to learn the drums. Then again several years ago playing for the copperton ward Chilli cook-off. So many wonder places we played music. You are a super talent at the steel guitar. And a wonderful old friend. Now you can play...

Way back in the late 60's Thiel lived in my L.D.S. ward. I had just started to play "at" the guitar a couple years before. Got to see a band he was in at a ward party, and finally about 10 or 15 years ago, I had the privilege of actually performing with him on 2 or 3 occasions. His knowledge of music theory was great. He would cue me on the chord changes on songs I wasn't familiar with. I really looked up to him and his talents.

Mr. Thiel was a life long friend. We both loved the Steel Guitar and that is how we met. The best thing about Thiel was his knowledge of the Scriptures. I will miss our conversations about the Gospel and his superior insight. Those on the other side will love being taught by him. Our loss is their gain.

We had such a a great time taking his Buick to car shows and cruise ins. We could talk about cars and music for hours. Thiel had may experiences throughout his life. He could relate those stories so beautifully. I look forward to talking with him again. Thanks Friend!

I remember working with Thiel at the JC Penney on 2nd South and Main back in the early 1970's. He was great individual and easy to work with. He was the type of person who defined himself as a good representative of the Lord.
