Sam was a very articulate and kind friend; he spend way too much of his life in a wheel chair and yet demonstrated a lot of grace.
We lost him just over a year ago.

Levi was a beautiful elder friend who suffered considerably. In spite of the 'ebbs and flows, waxings and wanings,' he seemed to quietly maintain a real relationship with the God who IS Love - a desire to care and - in his way - to be gently present…

Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…
