(For those who have had the pleasure to have a part of Vassar and his music in their lives).

Dear Friends,

It is with great sadness we must report to you Vassar's current health situation. Last week, the doctor had ordered an MRI which showed that the cancer had moved into Vassar's brain. This development was going to be treated with aggressive chemotherapy. After a couple of days of treatment, Vassar has decided to stop any further medical intervention.

Vassar is resting comfortably with family and friends. Hospice has been called in and will be taking care of him once he is out of the hospital. Both Vassar and his family have been so appreciative of your cards, notes, love and support. We can only ask now that you all pray for his peaceful passing devoid of suffering and pain.

The family continues to request that no contact be made other than guestbook and prayers. No phone calls please. Please look to the website for all updates. It also should be mentioned that all orders for merchandise have not been fulfilled, due to circumstances, and that your continued patience is deeply appreciated.

We can only pray that Vassar makes this next transition as
gracefully as he played his fiddle. Listen to the mockingbird sing...

God Bless You Vassar!

peace, NickO~
