Hank Stone Passes

It is with great sadness that I report the death of my good friend Hank Stone. He passed away Thursday night after a long and brave battle with cancer. Hank was a traditional country music stalwart, and loved the steel guitar. Many of the Texas steel guitar legends played with Hank both live and on his great records.

I am so sorry to hear this sad news, I knew Hank not only thru music, but also 1969 Dodge Charger's. We had gone to alot of Dodge Charger shows together, I am so sad to hear this news.

Hey Tommy, do you have Hank's # so I can call and give my condolences.

Please email it to me if you do, or if anyone else does??
