I learned the sad news last night in the midst of a Joyce Woodson concert. It was very hard to sit through the rest of the show in tears. Dick played on my first album as well; he was on the very short list of folks from Los Angeles (my hometown) with whom I always visited on my trips home from Nashville. I consider him among my dearest friends. Knowing that he died peacefully helps to take the edge off of my grief, but the sense of loss is tremedous.

I never thought of Dick as a bluegrass player, just a truely great musician without being bound by musical categories. And a sweet soul. He was a teacher and an ally in my search for information on my grandfather's copyrights. He was my chart man, my special guest, my confidante and my doorway to a world of wonderful friends to jam with in L.A.

Thanks for the place to make public my declaration of love for Dick Fegy.
