Even though 61 is relatively young, I'm glad to know he died of natural causes. Too many of his generation self-medicated themselves to death. Today, the wind cries Mitch.

I hope that somewhere the three of them are playing together again,

If I don't meet you no more in this world then uh
I'll meet ya on the next one
And don't be late
Don't be late
