desertbluesman Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I went to his Facebook page looked up his info found out he was from Salem Virginia and looked at the obits and sure enough a Jim Pate passed on June 10 as JL Hooker said on the other forum. www.legacy.com/obituaries/local/virginia/salem/obituary-name-search/lastname/pate dbm If it sounds good, it is good !! http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=143231&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertbluesman Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 I posted the question on his Facebook page and we shall see if his family looks on and perhaps can confirm or deny..... dbm If it sounds good, it is good !! http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=143231&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEB Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Man I hope not. We are friends on Facebook. It looks like Doc's daughter may have posted something on Doc's wife's page saying 'Maw Maw' passed 10 years ago and was sure she was in heaven helping Dad when he passed last week. But the post was sort of cryptic. It didn't exactly spell it out that Doc died. "It doesn't have to be difficult to be cool" - Mitch Towne "A great musician can bring tears to your eyes!!!

CEB Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Yes he is gone. Another daughter's profile pic is a picture of Doc with a In Living Memory frame. I hate this. I liked Jim.

Larryz Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Very sad news indeed. Thanks to you DBM and to JL for getting on Facebook along with CEB on the other forum and finding out the information for us. Right now I'm at a loss for words as Doc has been a great cyber friend of mine...My sincere condolences go out to all his friends and family. I know he's up there in the heavens playing some of his wonderful songs for us... Rest in Peace Doc Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was running another forum http://talk-music.proboards.com and talked about being in the hospital because he was having trouble breathing and they couldn't figure it out.
