Topic: Sad Task Tomorrow
I'm heading toward Yosemite early in the morning for a memorial service for a good friend who recently lost his 12 year battle with cancer. I knew Peter Barsotti through Eddie Money years ago, but re-connected in the past 10 years playing in charity golf tournaments Peter organized to raise money for the school district his kids attended & now his grand kids attend in Groveland, Ca. which included 2 nights of music each year headed up by Eddie and whatever VH-1 all-stars he could drag along. I began a business relationship with him doing construction projects on various properties he owned. When I was diagnosed with cancer 5 years ago Peter opened up to me that he had been battling the disease already for 6+years and became my "rock" of confidence, coaching me on how to face it head on and fight the good fight. Needless to say I was gutted a few weeks ago to hear the news. So tomorrow a whole bunch of friends and family will celebrate a life of a dear friend. Here's a link to a little info about one amazingly fun life.
