FOR YOUR PEANUT

I really don't know what to say. I am shocked by the loss of a fellow artist, dancer, and lover of the quirky. Such a loss. He was so young. I am saddened greatly by this.

Brian- Thanks for the laughs. Thanks for the genuine interest into me. Thanks for your music. Thanks for your smile. Thanks for your witty insight into the mundane. Thanks for your deep devotion to the arts and the Columbus community. We will miss you. Please keep making music, wherever you are. I will need a copy of your latest work when I get there!
