My Dad died 2 days ago, October 5, 2020.  He was 82 years old.  He was plagued by late stage Alzheimer's.

I was at his bedside and visited him every day during his last days.

I read the Word of God to him by his bedside, conveying to him the power of Jesus Christ, and that because my Dad prayed the sinners prayer asking Jesus to save him that my former pastor guided him through years ago, I reminded him that God cannot lie and will keep his promise, and he will be free of all disease, pain, and suffering forever, and will one day be given a new body, incorruptible.  Amen.

Dad, I miss you and will until the day I die.

Mark,

I am very sad at this news.  I knew about you caring for him, moving to where he lived.  Knowing the depth of your Faith I am heartened to see that you were able to minister to him in so many ways.  I'm sure your words and prayers were a comfort to him and your reassurance of God's Faithfulness is exactly what he needed to hear and know.

Our prayers are with you and yours in this difficult time.  Time will bring comfort.  O lost my Dad in 1990 and 30 years have flown by.  I think of The Oldster every day and when I do I smile because of who and what he was to me.  I love him now more than ever.  Peace will come, Brother.

I’m so sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. I lost my dad when I was young, yet I think of him so often. Please know that, for me, your words also offer hope and comfort. You and your family are in my prayers.

I have a great Michael Anthony, the jerk story.  I’ll post it if anyone is interested...

Please do.

So my guitar luthier and bassist friend Ian Bannerman was at NAMM and in the cafeteria.  Sitting at the next table were Tony Levin and Lee Sklar talking over lunch... just sharing stories about Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins gigs they had played.

Michael Anthony walks in with two goons (body guards?) and he motions at the table Tony and Lee are sitting at.  They walk over and tell Tony and Lee "you guys are sitting at Michael's table."  Tony and Lee look at each other, shake their heads, laugh and ask Ian if they can sit with him.  The three had a great talk.

Talking about Anthony in the same conversation with Tony Levin and Lee Sklar is laughable at best.  My opinion.  8)

Spencer Davis has passed at age 81.

The Spencer Davis Group with vocalist multi instrumentalist Steve Winwood gave us a lot of great music in the late 60’s... yeah, I’m old.  👴🏼

A very depressing 2020. Can't wait for it to be over in so many ways.
