Dear Ron,
Thank you so much for your message about your music playing and Lils
singing. Well heres another one for you. I am bringing my guitar and I
dont' know the first thing about a "G" string. Now I can laugh more with
you about this. So I believe in concert that you and I and Lil will hit
some notes that even Louis Armstrong may never had heard. Will be fun
though.
Also if for some reason, not knowing why, that you can't be there, WE
WILL COME TO YOU. We are not going to exclude you from this event, no
matter where the event is in New YOrk. We will bring you the food and
the music and the laughter right to you, my friend.
By the way John told me you played a trumpet, unless I heard wrong.
Probably did, I always get things messed up.
Take care my friend and get well. we are with you.
God Bless
