Re: Farewell Brother - Fellow Who fan



Derick:

So sorry to hear the news of your brother's passing. You will be in my
thoughts today. I can understand how an older brother or sister (I've got
one of each) can make an impact on one's life. It's because of my brother
and sister that I enjoy The Who, and music in general.
