When I left for the tour to Chile, I figured I would blog about various occurrences that took place during the trip, post a few pics, etc. On the first Saturday of the tour, I was reminded of what is really important in this world.
Claudia Picolo Glassman passed away after a 6 month battle with cancer. The only good thing to be taken from this is that she was able to have her family and friends with her as she went through the fight. She is survived by her children Nick and Emily, grandsons Jonas and Gavin (who she was able to meet upon his arrival to this world a month ago), partner Karen, and countless friends, family, and admirers.
I will always remember Claudia for giving me a turn or phrase that I have and will use in the future: "... then you are either a liar or an idiot, and I'm not going to deal with you any longer."
There's and old blues tune with the lyric, "Heaven done called another blues singer back home." Well, G*d called in an ace from the bullpen. Must have needed something straightened out up there...
There will be no fly of the day for this post.
Tight lines,
Dave
