Saw today that this guy, who was well known around town as a musician and the owner of a guitar store .... and from what I've read today in comments from others, well known for his involvement in working with kids in art education ..... that he passed away early yesterday morning.
I never got to know him but knew of him and recognized his face and name from often seeing him around town over the years.
It's one of those little moments/memories that always stays with me and pops up in my thoughts from time-to-time ..... I recall an evening, probably 35-40 years ago, a pickup basketball game in an open grade school gym, and one of us threw an elbow at the other .... pretty sure (with a small amount of doubt) that I may have been the aggressor. We stood there frozen, looking at each other for a second or two, like neither knew what to do in a confrontation, and continued on with the game.

I snapped this photo of him in 2020, sitting in front of his downtown guitar shop, playing his guitar.
