And it brings to mind that an Al Lind bead was included in our dear Russ Nobbs healing necklace, in 2013. Have been waiting for the moment to include Russ here, and this is it. I still miss him, especially when thinking about Tucson! It was my chance to pick his brain, and witness his genius, kindness and wit in person. This is a post from Floor, who included Russ in her book about the Tucson shows...

We have, and have had, great people in our community. It feels good to remember them.
