Ralph, Thank you for posting this information about Bob Plowman. I had always wondered what had happened to him. It breaks my heart to learn of how he suffered and was treated. He was a bright light for me at Oberlin.

Mark, it is great to learn of your impressive international work. You look pretty much the same!

Thank you, Paul, for sharing this with us. I am very sad to learn of this untimely loss.

It is offered in his memory.

I was so sad to learn today that we have lost David. He and I had been in touch in recent years. Chris Keys and I called him together several years ago and we had a lively, three-way conversation. David contacted me several times and told me that my encouraging him to go into composition when we were in the Conservatory together had made a real difference to him. He sent me recordings of his compositions as well. Our hearts go out to our great friend, the talented David Isele, as we hold him dear in our hearts.
