Today, a long time friend of mine lost his battle with cancer. Dave Ponkey was an enormously lovable human being, a talented story-teller and a brave man. Everyone who knew him is stunned and wounded by his death. We all thought he had more time so, while we knew he had a short time left, we were all unhappily surprised by the news this morning.
Updates to be posted here as they become available. In the meantime, please enjoy some of his stories here.
3/26/09 - UPDATE
There are several memorial services planned on the West Coast:
3/29/09 in the Vallejo area
4/18/09 at Southern Faire
Please contact me if you need information about these events.
