Rest in Heaven my friend.
There are no words to express the tremendous loss of Babe to our family. A virtuoso in music, with personality, charm and the gift of gab that made you never wanting to leave his presence. Babe was the life of the party and leader of the band and family. He helped put Columbia, Missouri on the map, traveling and touring, but always coming back home. I always felt a special connection to Babe as our names were so similar. He always gave me words of encouragement and had my back as a child, a college student at MU and even during my years here in Atlanta, Georgia. An unsung hero who loved his family and whose family loved him. Babe will be truly missed.
BABY
