  1. Von was such a good friend. Although we lost touch the past few years, I always thought the world of him. I very much look forward to seeing him again, one day. We might even do some more 'picking' together. (I bet he is already entertaining the angels.)

  2. I'm so sorry for your loss, Melvin. Von was like having a younger brother always picking and playing around. I can't believe he's gone, but I know he's with our Lord playing his music and watching over you and his family. Love ya and my prayers are with you and your family. I wish I was closer I'm in Indiana love Mandy
