Del Ray,

Sad to hear that. It seems like we have been losing a lot of our steel family in the past several years. My thoughts are with you.

God bless you gentlemen, I'm going to miss this man. It was because of him that I became interested in the steel guitar.

Thru this wonderful forum, I have been introduced to the great players in the Sacred Steel community. Sad to lose one of our brothers in the fraternity of our magical instrument. My condolences to his friends and family.

Del and Ronnie - I know both your hearts are hurting right now with the recent losses of your mentors and friends in the sacred steel community.

My prayers are with you and your sacred steel family.

Your sister in Christ,
