I hope that no one has to ever go through anything like this - it is just too unbelievable to try to handle - love your friends and family everyday like it is the last time you will ever see them. My life is forever changed because of this - it will be much harder to find the fun again with Dime gone - he was always the spark to work and good times - he will be missed beyond what words can describe.
I was fortunate enough to be the one to put together the memorial video for Dime's Funeral - it was a way for me to say my goodbye - I got a chance to share some of the accomplishments and love Dime brought to us all.
Here is a pic from the last photo shoot we did together for Washburn Guitars:

Good to see you back, RE. I hope you are keeping things under control, and you heal a little every day. I shot you an email a week or two ago, and you sound better now than you did when you replied then, so I have high hopes you'll pull through it and make him proud.
Hugs!
