Met the man once several years ago at the only Kalamazoo Trad Expo I've been able to attend. He was well advanced in years even then, to the point he could not get around without assistance. But he sat there all day long and signed autographs for anybody that stopped by. (Still can't bring myself to wash my Stormy Kromer, name's on the bill) Contrast that with today's overpaid, spoiled celebrity brats who wouldn't give you the time of day for less than six figures! Ron's right...gone, but not forgotten!
