To my brothas and wife:

Let's all take a moment to reflect on our times with BIG HERB.  Today is the fifth anniversary of his passing.  We know how much he loved reading books about rock stars that died before their time.  Geoff definitely hits that mark.

Whether it was the boisterous Herbster telling me to "step up to the big table" and join Ezra Company or a conversation about life and relationships Geoff was as sincere as they come.

If you're so moved, share a thought or two about our friend.   A man who brought so much cheer to those around him and yet somehow was struggling from within.

Geoff I miss you my big brother.  I think of you often and while I'm eventually saddened by the fact you're no longer here my first instinct is always a smile.  Whether golfing (if that's what he called it), a Ted Nugent concert (very at home) or the big Ezra conference table he always brought that wry smile and a big laugh for all.

Soldier on my brother!

Sherby
