Dear Dave,
You fought hard and long and I sure wish it hadn´t been so long since that hug at the Walmart, but it feels like it was yesterday! And we had a good day that day! And it may have been a long time ago that we´d get in that music room at Percy´s and Charlotte´s and listen to the best damn music I ever heard! Oh what memories were made there!
Well I know that Thurman and Ronnie have been waiting for you so they can finally play " Who Will Stop The Rain?" The way it was played in the sixties in that little old 12x12 room. And we´ll all be with you sooner than later, heck who thought we´d make it this long!
