We all have our reasons in life. We all do what we have to do, what we need to, but sometimes we do things because we love to.
I love to play guitar, sing, and write songs. The reason this all started is because of one man, one musician, my uncle... Ron Stewart. This morning I got an email telling me that he passed away yesterday morning at 9:30. Cancer of the liver... Right now It's hard to believe as he took me to lunch at McDonalds only a month ago. It's even harder to realize the impact his passing has upon my family and everyone who has had the pleasure of sharing some time with Ron.
Yes, this is life and yes these things happen. Yes this was too soon and very very unfortunate. It saddens me to realize we can no longer sit and chat about gear, music, classic rock or life. Ron you will be greatly missed by me, and all of the family.
I will forever be grateful to you for many reasons. Your inspiration, your knowledge of the industry passed down, and most importantly, the gift of music that has opened my eyes to a whole new world of enlightenment. Ron sent me a written letter in the mail, I didn't think anyone still sent out letters anymore, but that's just his style. Old school. Within the letter he sent me his cd's and a demo track of a song he has been working on... he asked me to do something with it... The song is called "follow your heart" and something tells me he had me in mind when he began working on this song.
So Ron, I would be honored to finish your demo, and keep your name and thus, keep your music alive. Its warming to still hear your voice on these cd's but its also a very sad experience because it makes me feel as if your beside me playing these same songs at the family barbeque.
Last few words here...
Ron you are missed.
I'm happy you no longer feel any pain.
I know your playing your guitar somewhere...
I will never forget you.
Love,
Dan
"theres somethng now i wish you could see,
never did doubt once that you had it in you, just like me.
go on young one, play your melody,
yours will be the voice of reason and the voice ringin' out through the trees"
