Like was said earlier - best bass resource on the web. I've got lots of great info and inspiration here, and I appreciate all your hard work.
So sorry for your loss.

Sorry for your loss Paul.
If there's anything that can be done to help just ask.
Like it has been said before, you have a big support group here.

I see now why the shirt I ordered hasn't arrived yet. Anyway, that's not important...family is. Hope everything works out OK Paul.
silent method said:Hey Paul, I just noticed that you closed down the tbstore for a family emergancy and just wanted to let you know that all of us here at talkbass are thinking about you. Hope everything works out for you.
You have a HUGE support network here
+whatever number I am.
I've gone from 0 to 60 as a bass player and a HUGE part of it has been because of this goodness that Paul has provided. Paul, if there is anything you need, like said by others, consider it done.
Sorry for your loss Paul. If there's anything we can do to help you in this difficult time, please ask.

My condolences, Paul. I've been there far too many times, and although it's hard to fathom, it does get better, and the good memories become the lasting ones.
Best wishes to you and yours.

My gosh, thank you all so much for all your kind words and thoughts. I'm sorry I didn't see this thread earlier, but I'm just now coming up for air after working through quite a backlog.
The death in the family was my grandfather. It was not a tragic death, but very unexpected. He was very healthy, or so we thought... he was at the gym as usual from 5-7am the day he died (he was running marathons when he was 65
). When I learned he was deteriorating in the hospital I packed up, shut down parts of TalkBass, and took off to Missouri. He died when I was halfway there. So it was more of a shock to me than if he was a 'typical' aging 83 year old. But his life was a full and rewarding one. The hardest part for me, and as musicians I'm sure many of you can relate, was playing music at his funeral.
Thanks again, everyone, for your heartfelt posts.

Too late to send flowers and a card? If not, PM me an address.
I know you don't know me personally, but what you provide for me here at TB is an integral part of my life.
