Dear Friends,

 

It is with much sadness that I tell you that our good friend and fellow musician Leon Crabb passed away this morning, February 13.

 

Leon left us peacefully with his family around him after enduring a long illness.

Pauline said that last night they had a "Golden Eagle" dinner where the family played our albums and Leon seemed to enjoy it and be at peace.

 

He was a great friend and wonderful addition to our music for over a quarter of a century.

 

This is all the information I have at this time.  Memorial service plans are being made and I will pass that along with any other updates as soon as I receive it.

 

Best wishes,

 

Dick Shooshan
