Rest in Peace Mr. Stubs.

I had the great pleasure to see him perform on three diffrerent occasions with the Four Tops. He was wonderful with the crowd--a truly great front man--and had one of my five favorite male singing voices of all time.
I remember him sayiing that his favorite song to sing was "Just Ask The Lonely" because of the emotion it conveyed. No one conveyed it better.
Levi, please tell Brother Jamerson how much you are both missed and tell HIM we're glad you were both here.

And when you hear him say "Just look over your shoulder..." you will remember where that came from.

RIP my main man.
