This night in 1976...

Such sad news: Willie Cashman, known to many as Willie John, passed away peacefully in his sleep earlier this week. He was greatly loved by so many of us, and we miss him so much already.

There's quite a lot going on in SF this weekend in celebration of the Grateful Dead. Here's a sweet free event tomorrow with good tunes, good vibes, good folks. It's free, but you need a ticket -- get it here: eventbrite.com/e/a-grateful-g… #GratefulGathering #gratefuldead

Michelle Zarin, who passed away earlier this week, was a good friend to so many of us over the years. Known for managing the Record Plant and the Automatt recording studios, and later Tower of Power, she also shared a deep love of Latin music and salsa dancing with Bill.

So sad to hear that Molly Rigney, known to many as Molly Frink, a Bluecoat and Secret Administrator at BGP 1977-1989, passed away yesterday. Our condolences to Steve Rigney, daughter Nora Beth, and everyone in the Rigney and Frink families. Photo: Molly, Steve, and BGPers:

Where we all were, this day in 1991.

Another sad loss: Julia Brigden has passed away after a long battle with cancer. Julia was the wife of the late Mick Brigden, who we all miss a lot -- and also had many adventures, as described in her 2019 memoir, Girl. Our heartfelt condolences to her many loved ones.

We sure do miss you, Bill.

We were shocked and saddened to learn that the legendary Bill Walton has died. He's been such an important part of our lives for so long -- he and his big heart and excellent vibes will be sorely missed. Our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.
