Sweet.<BR/>Was always delighted to see him over the years. And was so sad to see the Times-Dispatch article, but proud to see top headlines and story for this incredibly talented and dear man...<BR/>But none the less , my mouth fell open in shock as quiet tears began to swell.<BR/> i cut out the article, put it on my piano, and have had a candle lit by it since.<BR/>when I did a 'search' tonight,as needed to 'touch' his spirit with others, i clicked right to your link. It was like being with an old friend, too. <BR/> ...and when read your stories, had to write you asap with a BIG THANKS.<BR/>Love and peace be with his spirit and all that loved him.<BR/>Take care, dear Bruce.Thanks again<BR/>for being here with pics and stories.<BR/>love light peace<BR/>marian hollowellmarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03088251362840112990noreply@blogger.com
