Big brother gets to go first!

I will forever remember Chris telling me that everybody has a story that you don't know. Always try to be accepting when someone doesn't act the way you expect them to. You don't have to criticize them. Instead, show them compassion and let them know you are there if they need you.

When him and I played music together, he sometimes would get into this groove where he seemed like he was in another world, just him and his guitar. I would play background and listen while being thoroughly amazed and entertained. Afterward, we both agreed that we should have recorded these sessions now lost to posterity. This only happened about a half dozen times, so I feel especially privileged to have shared in that.

The world and I will miss such a good guy. I'll think of you often and see you at "The Great Gig in the Sky." Love always, John.
