Mrs. B,
Louie was the living embodiment of the teachings of Dr. King. He treated everyone with respect, warmth, and dignity. In his life, in his music, he was a Gentleman and a Pioneer.
Warm greetings for the New Year!

"Yes, if you want to say that I was a drum major, say that I was a drum major for justice. (Amen) Say that I was a drum major for peace. (Yes) I was a drum major for righteousness. And all of the other shallow things will not matter. (Yes) I won't have any money to leave behind. I won't have the fine and luxurious things of life to leave behind. But I just want to leave a committed life behind. (Amen) And that's all I want to say.
If I can help somebody as I pass along,
If I can cheer somebody with a word or song,
If I can show somebody he's traveling wrong, Then my living will not be in vain.
If I can do my duty as a Christian ought,
If I can bring salvation to a world once wrought,
If I can spread the message as the master taught, Then my living will not be in vain."
-Martin Luther King Jr. (2/4/68)

Dear Ted,
… The last time Louie & I saw you was when you played with Wynton here in San Jose (DeAnza College, Cupertino) -- must've been 2008 or so. …

Hi Francine,
Happy New Year! … I haven’t seen you in so long! Yes, back about 12 years ago. It was so great seeing you both. Wynton really loved and had so much respect for Louie. And of course, I can’t say enough about LB!!!
