I got to know Quirt pretty well when he lived in this area - I liked him a lot. He's a lot of fun to hang out with.

I'll take y'all's word for it. Seems like a nice lady he's married to, so he must have some redeeming qualities.
Me, I'm just me. I write like I talk, except it's hard to convey the redneck accent in text. I try to have manners, have known to be cordial on occasion, tend to say what I think and if I think you are trying to intimidate me, I'll rip your ears off and feed them to you.
I'm just a big teddy bear 🧸.

All I can think of as I watch this piling on from both “sides” is that Larry would have loved this sh*t. It’s actually made me laugh out loud a couple of time. Sorry, I’m in a weird place in my mind lately. A weird and sometimes overwhelming grief that pops up at strange times from losing my Dad and both of our cats this year, along with my mom’s dementia that has taken her mostly away, even though her body is still there. Really hard. So death has been on my mind a lot lately.

:woman-heart-woman: Tough times. I will send positive thoughts to you.

There appears to be an unfortunate consensus forming amongst the Dewites that Larry was a nearly complete fiction. That the life narratives he wove online were largely invented. Personally, I suspect the narrative that Larry was almost complete fiction, is more fictitious than the stuff he wrote about himself. But confirmation bias, as always, rules the day in the minds of many.
Education is extremely important.

I'm not part of that bullshit, though, right? I could never abide any clique so crass and irreverent that it'd have the likes of me as a member.

It’s a shame you never met Vince.

Vince was a grade a hoot. I was lucky enough to meet him in a belly dancing restaurant in DC, along with Aqua, Ax and his family, Lufin, M&Ms and their family, Improv...
He nearly got me into a fight with the neighboring party who I suspect were relatives of the dancers. Vince was the friend who comes to town to party with you. You all end up in jail and you can't wait for him to come back and do it again.

Vince is a convincing arbiter of this question, but not in a way you’re comfortable posting about publicly? Is that the take home message?

I sat beside Vince for that dinner. I remember being sorry for that for Vince's sake. After all, this is at its core a piano forum, Vince was an institution in his world and I don't know shit about pianos or his industry. Kind of a waste to hang with the likes of me was my feeling on it. But he was very kind and accommodating.
And Vince... had some stories.

Also had lunch with Vince once in an Italian restaurant in Philly. A vivacious and gregarious gentleman of a bygone era, proud of his Italian heritage and his hometown, Vince was very much a delight. Vince offered to give me a tour of Cunningham's old Germantown shop, but I did not take him up on it because by that time I have already toured that Cunningham shop twice -- silly me, I thought there would be more time and more opportunities to meet up with Vince again in the future.
