Richard Blue

I met Richard during my internship at Chase Manhattan. Very nice man.

This man is not the same Ted Bluechel from The Association. Ted is still alive. Apart from that, sorry that Richard passed so young.

Although 14 years belated, I also want to
extend my heartfelt condolences to Ted's family,
with medicine prayers in this sacred time of reflection.
Even though I've not crossed paths with Ted,
I remember him as drummer of The Association and
some of the greatest hits that made their charts in the 60's,
However, I didn't know that he passed until most recently.
I know that his bandmates Brian Cole, Larry Ramos,
and Terry Kirkman welcomed Ted into the Spirit World
of Heaven, playing some of the great classics of
The Association with many other musicians who
left their Earthly stage to play for our Creator.
In time, we'll see Ted
(and all the other great people who left us)
again when Creator makes His call.
In my view, it's not "good-bye",
but "until we meet again in a special place
the Great Spirit has prepared for us".

Dear Amanda and Marilyn,

I am saddened by the loss of Richard. I only talked to him a few times last year, but it was a pleasure to get to know him. I wish you well.
