     Up until now I have refrained from saying anything  about Paul delay's 
passing out of respect for those who knew him. I didn't know  him and I've 
never heard him play although I will remedy that soon. What I do  know is that if 
I can live my life and gain the love and respect that he has  gotten and has 
been shown on this list, and I'm sure many others, then maybe I  will have 
accomplished what I have set out to do. Paul deLay sounds like the guy  I'd like 
to be when I grow up. (I'm almost 50) He showed love to everybody, he  was 
happy most of the time and he was an awesome musician/songwriter. I sure  wish I 
could make it to this memorial concert and pick up more of what he was  about. 
I've spent my life trying to emulate the great players I have come  across. I 
most definitely have my own style now but it looks like I have to go  back to 
school, not just for licks but to learn more about how to live my life  and be 
a better person/musician. Rest in peace Paul, we'll meet one day.
