Hi guys,
Sorry it's been so long since I've posted over here....been really busy.
Not good news about Adrian. I just got off the phone with a close friend of mine who told me that Adrian is entering hospice. Please keep him in your prayers.
Have any of you guys heard anything?
Best,
Kenny

I cannot think of anything meaningful or useful to write.
Thanks for the update, Kenny. Adrian is in my thoughts.

I've never heard of him but I'm guessing he is a well loved bassist, hearing of anyone in having any problems isnt good. Im not religious and stuff but...I guess I will prey for him. try somthing new.

Like everyone else who has met Adrian in person, I love the guy.
He is a great person and I feel privileged to have met him and to be able to call him a friend.

Sad news. Adrain has expressed strong faith through this and appears secure that his life is in good hands. I hope the best for him, his family, and those close to him.

Agreed, Adrian has been continuously in my prayers for a long time and I was looking for some updates about him, I'm very saddened to hear this.
However, Adrian is strong in his faith and I know that he takes comfort in both that spiritual relationship and in the knowledge that so many in the bass community love and care about him.

Huh?! I last posted on that thread, and it was a bit ago.
I'll see if Carey and crew at Nordstrand have some more up-to-date info.
Peace.

Phil, Jeremy and the rest of you bass brothers.
I also have a call into my close friend for more details. Adrian lived and gigged in South Florida for many years before he moved to Vegas. We go way back, "back in the day"...we were competitors for the local gig scene, but as we got older, we became friends. He was my neighbor for a couple of years.Great player.
The South Florida comminity has great respect for him.I'll immediately post if I have any news.
Best,
Kenny

Thanks, Kenny.
For the rest of you, follow Kenny's link for a mailing address if you'd like to send cards of support to Adrian. He has not been on phone or email or internet for a while now.
Peace.

Very sad indeed. My thoughts are with Adrian and his family.
I just got word that a friend in her mid 40s was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumour two weeks ago. She died last night. She was a wonderful lady. This cancer business is terrible.
