[Dixielandjazz] RIP Dick Williams - Apr 17, 2023

Word comes from Austin, TX, that Capt. Dick Williams, USMC Ret., passed 
away on April 17, 2023 in Austin, TX, where he had recently relocated to 
live near his younger son, Tyler. It was my privilege to be the "anchor" 
tuba player for Dick's "Jazzsea Jammers" open jam sets at festivals 
(Fresno, San Diego, Pismo Beach and others), and to play under his 
leadership in the South Bay Traditional Jazz Society's "South Bay 
Jammers" for more than 15 years.
