Dear Diane, I am so sad to hear of Dick passing. It has been wonderful remembering all the times I got to hang in the same orbit with Dick and you and play music with him. I will always remember the first time I met him at the Red Rocks in 1972 - I was 16--- this feeling is 40 years of respect for the best bass player for our kind of music. I will always remember your cookies. I will also remember being a Sr. in high school hearing a story from Brian Schrack that cutie Donna Maxll from my class went to say goodbye to the JD boys at Kearney Nebraska Airport ---- she turned to Dick and said "Dick ..... you're such a real person...... and Dick replied "Yes.... I know" I never laughed so hard .... and I cried last night singing Sunshine for people at a special fund raiser in Breckenridge for Breckenridge Music Institute. I told them the story of the "most valuable bass player" photo on the back of PP&M tour book from the late 60's? and 70's.- what a loving....lovely person...... I love you Dick. I will miss you and that beautiful style on the bass. I love you Diane....I'll be calling soon. And thinking of all of you tomorrow at the memorial. Jim |
