WOW!

Doc IS the reason I'm playing the trumpet. I saw him when I was in fourth grade, some 35 years ago, and I'm still in awe of his abilities.

I had the great pleasure of finally meeting him four years ago at a reception after a MO concert, and what a treat. I had an old copy of the program he played from that concert when I first heard him, and he actually remembered some of the details of Rochester and that concert. Of course I had him autograph it.

I am definately going to go see him this upcoming season to say goodbye and wish him well.

Thanks for all the memories Doc.
