RIP Dave Alway (1950-2007)

[autographedcat]

peteralway just posted to announce that his brother Dave passed away this morning, from apparent heart failure. He was 56 years old.

Dave was a frequent attendee to Gafilk in recent years, and he spent his final days surrounded by friends and family, sharing music and laughter. I hope that when it's my time to go, I will have the same.

He was a warm, sweet, and caring man, and I was glad to call him my friend. He will be greatly missed by all of us.

I can't believe it! I just met the man as he made buttons at the registration area at Gafilk. He was telling a couple of us about the Penguin with the song in it.

Oh, no!

I know we've communicated since you posted, but I'm going back and making sure I've read all the posts about Dave on LJ. I really appreciate your page with the links that's allowing me to catch up. Soon I'll be tracking down happier GaFilk posts with it.
