I just found news of Tom's death on FB. I think he was a member here. I know he was a member of HC. My condolences to his family.

He was a luthier that specialized in lap steel guitars.

As I spent most of my time in GJ when at HC I may not even have crossed paths with him, just saying.
Didn't mean to sound disrespectful or anything like that...

It's all OK. I don't think PK was offended. I am in the same boat as you, Dex. Hung out in GJ more than other HC forums, also.
