Larry is a long time member of this Synthzone and is also the person that put up the picture machine across the Bottom.
Larry wrote me that he lost his Father Bill who was also an arranger player. They were very close.
Those that have known Larry here through the years might like to post their condolences to him and his family, as we are his extended family. Larry is a super fine man and a really great friend to all.
Larry, I pray that God will use your tears to heal your grief. We do understand this grief, and share it with you.
One day a father died.
And on that clear, cold morning,
in the warmth of his bedroom,
the son was struck with
the pain of learning that sometimes
there isn't any more.
No more hugs,
no more lucky moments to celebrate together,
no more phone calls just to chat,
no more "just one minute"
Sometimes, what we care about the most goes away.
never to return before we can say good-bye,
Say "I Love You."
So while we have it . . it's best we love it . .
And care for it and fix it when it's broken
and take good care of it when it's sick.
This is true for marriage .... and friendships ..
And children with bad report cards;
And dogs with bad hips;
And aging parents and grandparents
We keep them because they are worth it,
Because we cherish them!
Some things we keep --
like a best friend who moved away
or a classmate we grew up with.
There are just some things that
make us happy, No matter what.
Life is important,
and so are the people we know
And so, we keep them close!
I received this from someone today
who thought I was a 'KEEPER'!
Then I am posting it here to the people
I Think of in the same way!
Thank you very much for
being a special part of MY Life!
Friends are angels who lift us up when our wings forget how to fly.
Bebop

Larry please accept my deepest sympathy on hearing this tragic news. Your Dad must have been a really great guy to have brought up a kid like you the way he did. Your Dad lives on in you.

Thanks Nigel,
If you only knew how much the SynthZone, the GA Forum, and the Technics Forum helped to keep him going.
For that we are very grateful to you, all the members, and of course Bebop.

Having had your wonderful Dad is one of life's precious blessings of the highest magnitude.

Your online friendship has also been a great blessing to me and many others.

My condolences to you and yours.
