Remembering Bob Berry

px527dhe.jpghpim0024.JPGhpim1321.JPG  The band and a large number of good people in the Green Valley area lost a great friend on Saturday the 14th.  His wonderful wife Annie was by his side.  A dapper (even when he wore his Mid Life T-shirt) dancer who was always a true gentleman.  His pre-show ritual for us was asking if we knew a “certain song” and we were always happy to perform “Wicked Games” per his request.  As I understand, he would perform it on karaoke nights, but we never talked him into joining us.  We’ll miss you greatly Bob, but as I told Annie to tell you, we’ll see you soon.

ELKS LODGE 2532(?) TUCSON - 3-6-09
