A few weeks ago there was mention of a fabulous clarinet player named 
Bob Achilles who has occasionally joined the jam sets at the Napa Valley 
Dixieland Jazz Society. 

Sadly I received word today from his son Jim, that Bob has passed away 
after a short illness.  I have no further details at this time.

Bob was a veteran of big bands in Las Vegas until he retired to become a 
full time pastor.
