Two legends in one day; the national press will only take note of one
of them, but, to me, this one is just as important.

Sad news to report that another of our legends has left us. Homer
"Pappy" Sherrill passed away peacefully earlier this morning here in
Columbia, SC.

Pappy's rich musical legacy included the complete spectrum of country
music and bluegrass working with so many of the other legends such as
the Blue Sky Boys, Morris Brothers, Byron Parker, and for most of his
career with his dear friend and banjo legend partner, Snuffy Jenkins
along with the Hired Hands.

I will try to post more information as it is available.
