Sitting here trying to come up with the worlds to express the pain & loss. :( All I can find is good memories of a man that without his open door I might not be doing what I love today with music. My friends lost their only father & the world lost a good man. I will always remember that greet at the door "ROCK & ROLL George is here" as he said with a fun puzzled smile of a STRONG ole school Irish man... Most of all I will remember that "open door" & the love and support he gave myself & his family. :) R.I.P. Mr. Flaherty .
Much Love & Respect always
