Re: Rip............ Frank
Oh ... my ... God ...
The last time I communicated with Frank was in the shoutbox on the night of August 9th. Little did I--much anyone else--know it would be the last time we'd contact him in this life.
One thing we had long discussed doing was my coming up to Des Moines to sit in on percussion with his band. That didn't happen--not here anyway, and I am sad we can't do it right now--but I sincerely hope we'll have an opportunity in eternity to do just that...
Pete, thank you for sharing what has to be rougher on you and your family than it was for any of us DrumChatters. Your father brought intelligence, experience and a great sense of humor to DrumChat--and he will not only missed, but warmly remembered by those who knew him, both in person and on the Internet.
Arrivederci, mi amici...
keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!
