Subject: [JP] sad news re: vic heyman

for those of you who knew vic, i am passing this along:

Hello friends,
Reba Heyman  just  called to tell me that her beloved husband Vic Heyman died
tonight around 9pm at  Westside Regional Medical Center Plantation, Florida.
I am very sad but relieved  to know that he will no longer be suffering.. not
only from the debilitating  Parkinsons Disease that he has courageously
endured for two decades but also  that he wonbt be continuing to linger in
this
vegetative state.

Reba has  been sitting by his side for almost two solid weeks and sleeping
there while he  has been in Hospice care. It has been amazing to see the
outpouring of love and  concern from all around the country from musicians and
friends whose lives have  been touched by this wonderful couple. Vic and
Rebabs love
of music and concern  for so many will be indelibly marked in all of our
hearts.

Through this  entire ordeal Reba has welcomed hundreds of calls from people
all over the  country extending their good wishes and prayers. I know she has
appreciated it  so much. All of her children came to visit and have already
gon
e home. Judy just  left  to go home today and Rebabs brother is here now to
keep her company  for a while.

We will be planning a special bFolk Shivab here at the Shack  In The Back
where they both have spent many music filled evenings sitting in  their
specially designated front row House Concert seats ...the only ones with
cushions..

We will make sure that everyone is informed about when it is  going to be
held. In the meantime Reba has asked me to tell people spread the  word on her
behalf to the music community. There are so many people who will  want to
know.

With saddness

Thank you for posting this, John.

I'm very sad to hear about Vic's passing.   He was the real thing.  A true
hero.
