Thanks Rob, was hoping that someone would notice.i have not spoken directly to his sisters...they are scattered throughout the country.mSince has did not pass at home in Pennsylvania, but rather across country in Washington state (which really is true Arland style) I believe he was cremated. They made mention of having some sort of service here at home in the future. I spoke with him back in March about my planning a trip back to Negril myself. I am thinking of asking if they would like me take and scatter his ashes (as I plan on having done with my own some day) in Negril. Pretty sure he would like that. He turned me on to sweet Jamaica years ago and I became a frequent visitor in the late 90's and early 2000's. Will try to locate some old friends myself regardless a visit for me now will soon come. He is a friend of 38 years and it still has me reeling. Some sweet Jamaican air will do some good. Thanks for posting the link appropriately. Much respect and blessings.
