Howdy!

Another year is drawing to a close. As we come to this season of
reflecting upon the year, ourselves, and giving thanks for the many
blessings around us, I'd like to share some thanks as I realize so many
people I take for granted daily.

Firstly, a friend of mine, Walt English died tragically this past week. He
was a friend, a good man, and a good, different kind of booking agent. I
am glad I knew Walt, and will miss him. All of my deepest thoughts and
sympathies go to his wonderful wife, Becky, and their children.

I have a wonderful band - good friends first, and then great musicians.
They've been there for me when no one else has been. I appreciate then
greatly. There is also a wonderful community of artists in the Akron area
that make up a lot of my friends. It's a privilege to write and perform
with, and have them for friends. They enrich all of our lives!

Lastly, and not least - all the fans who have become my friends. You come
to many of my shows and support me every chance to you can. All that is
never overlooked, and always appreciated from the deepest parts of my
heart and soul.

If I ever take you for granted, forgive me, for you are definitely
appreciated and loved.

See you soon.
