It wasn't just that lots of big people died, it was that the news didn't stop.
Lots of musicians, but a stroke, a husband, and Rich Conaty on Dec 30.

He was a living, exciting, vital link to the music of the 20's and 30's.
Why is it that being on the listening end of a 40 year conversation is so amazingly transformative? As if he was a bigger part of life than we realized.
I wil admit (brag) about proposing to him. It was kind of a casual joke, but he loved going out to Bed & Breakfasts, so he came up to my hometown. I was on crutches, he drove his fancy car, and with all the snow, it was especially hard to park.
I miss him already.
