Ronnie died yesterday.

We are supposed to go to Disneyland on Tuesday. Rick is a wreck, but I think he will be somewhat better by Tuesday. :bawl:

There is no funeral service planned yet, and I told Rick we would at least be closer to San Francisco while near LA, should they decide to have a service.

RIP Ronnie Montrose.

This flower is an Angels Trumpet, fitting for a musician.

I grieve with you in this loss.

There was an obituary in today's LA Times. I had no idea there was a TUG connection.

Cindy, I would bet you've got a personal story or two involving him that you could share... it'd be kind of interesting.

One of my friends from church, who is a wonderful guitar player himself with his own band, had posted this video on his Facebook page in honor of your brother-in-law. When you mentioned his name, it rang a bell so I found his page. Prayers for your family in this sad time.

Cindy,

I'm so very sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Rick and your family at this time.

I was a fan. I have friends who run an internet radio station...a lot of it is 70's and 80's rock. I couldn't believe they had no Montrose. I made them add it.

He will be missed.

Hugs.
