I know Dave was ill early this year. He's from New Hampshire just North of where I live. He sent me this after his Mom died earlier this year.

"On another medically related issue, I am now recovering from 40 days in the ICU where I was kept in a medical coma due to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).

It was brought on by an unusually persistent case of pneumonia. I hit "code blue" (clinically dead) once during the ordeal.

But...it will take a lot more than simply "dying" to get rid of me! LOL!! "

Gonna miss his Marshall amps with the 20 knobs on the front...
