This is a big loss for the steel playing community. I don't think you'll ever find a nicer person on the planet. He was a great player who knew he was blessed.
I'll be keeping a good thought for him.

What a shame! I loved his playing and singing.

"I Cried About Roosevelt".

RIP,
Drew

That's very sad. There was an article in today's St. Pete Times about him, along with the pic that Andy posted.

RIP, Willie.
