June 09, 2008 | Loss of dear friends...

It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you on the recent loss of dear friends, Eric "Stu" Stuer and his wife Debbie. Unfortunately, they lost their lives in a tragic car accident while on tour in Louisiana. The first time I got the opportunity to met this two wonderful individuals in person was around 2002. Inspired by Eric's rhythm collector spirit, we decided to write and publish an introductory article about the Afro-Puerto Rican Plena for his Rhythmweb.com, the response we received from people all over the world was tremendous. Also occasionally, we did have the opportunity to work/play together in Rhythmweb school/libraries percussion presentations, and surely every time it was a blast!!! Debbie a very sweet lady, always camera in hand documenting and taking awesome pictures. Last time I got the chance to talk with Eric was this past May when he called looking for a sub for an upcoming presentation. As usual, he was all "pumped up" very excited about his upcoming presentations tour, while at it he let me know how proud he was of all the good things happening with my career. Eric and Debbie you'll be dearly missed...

Que Dios los tenga en su Gloria
