Echoing what I said in PM, he was one of our finest. You & Bill (OD) are always in my prayers. While I cannot even begin to know exactly how you're feeling, we are here for you.
Please stay well and call on your friends if/when you need them.

Peace & Love to you both,

Your friend in music & in life,

Fred

Regrets for a battle lost, cheers for a life well lived that brought joy to many others.

I was not aware of Drummers' struggles, but if I can find a suitable link, I'd use Amazing Grace accompanied by bagpipes.

Best wishes to Drummer's family, real and virtual.

No one can know just what you've lost;
No one can understand the cost;
But when you feel your energy drain,

Let us help you cope with grief;
We hope with time you'll feel relief.
We can't replace the one who's gone,
But let our concern help you carry on.

Missy

It breaks my heart to hear this news. I told Fred in a PM that OD was a big reason why I liked being on this board and this site in general. I can honestly say that there are FEW in his class around here, or anywhere, for that matter. He was kind and generous and I loved his love for music. From now on anytime I hear The Guess Who or especially Quicksilver Messenger Service I will think of him.
I hope you are able to find the strength you need to cope with this and please know that both of you are loved tremendously around here.

Missy, my very sincere condolences to you.

We had such fun together, sharing music and videos and talking about musicians. Old Drummerman got such a kick out of my love of some the obscure music I put up on the board, and the boogie woogie piano pieces I shared as well.

We all care very much for you and for Bill and he will be tremendously missed here. Take heart that all of us send prayers and support.

Old Drummer, Bill, may his Soul rest in Eternal Peace.

Missy,

I am so saddened by this news. I didn't "know" OD but just from chatting with him here I felt like I knew him.

He seemed to have the kindest heart and his love for music (and you) was so apparent everyday.

He will be sorely missed by many on IHUB.

My thoughts are with you always.

Many, like me, silently admired Old_Drummer from afar.

It’s been a couple of years (#msg-29546950) since I gave respects, saying “Thanks Old_Drummer”.

Old_Drummer, you were one of the folks down here that seemed to give more than you took. Wish I hadn’t waited so long between showing respects and saying thanks. You deserved to hear it more often.

I know you’re up there flying!

Missy…Thanks, Respects, and Best Wishes are with You!

omg missy, i just got the word. im so so horribly sorry i dont know what to say.

i had just posted to him today, only after seeing him say that he was going back to lurking. i did check to see when he posted last but had NO idea that he passed.

i worried that there was no recent post but assumed, he was just lurking.

well, he left me a super gift missy.

he showed me how to post my moms song, after she died not too long ago. she was in a band.

he would have liked that i kept his lesson on how to do that.

thx to the person that p/m'd me.

God bless.
