Some sad news

I am so very sorry to report the death of my dear friend Lee "Westy" Westenhofer, after his long battle with heart problems. He left us this afternoon, surrounded by his family and listening to some of his favorite music. Anyone who has seen our shows over the past fifteen years knows what an amazing musician and entertainer Westy was, and how much joy he brought to so many people. He was so very generous to me, giving me advice, carpooling to gigs and expecting no pay, and helping out in so many ways. I will cherish the music that we made together, and am proud that he is featured on my second recording. God grant him peace, and condolences to Sharon and his sons. Farewell, old friend - you are greatly missed and will not be forgotten.
