You're welcome Chris.
My computer crashed last night before this news broke so I just saw this now.
I couldn't help thinking over the last few years that we were lucky to never have needed to encounter this situation with one of our 16. It's amazing when you think of all the other bands out there and what their fans had to go through regarding members they were fans of that had been lost but as has been pointed out here it is inevitable and if nothing else it will help us prepare for those unavoidable future days we hear more news like this.
This will be a strange day not knowing the feelings that will overcome me.
John
