Its with a heavy heart I post to you, to inform you all; that Walkerman - Steve Reich passed away early yesterday morning. Life is short!!! One of the original members here and someone who loved Larrivée Guitars equal to a Larrivée Family member. I'm certain JCL will miss his dear friend!

Very sad news. I always loved his posts about the goings on at the mother ship and his obviously close relationship to the Larrivee family. I will miss him.

Wow. A forum family member for sure. Best to his family. He sure left them a lot of beautiful guitars.

God bless him and his family.

I'm sad to hear this.  RIP  I know he loved his Larrivees. The forum will be less without him.

Nice to see his guitars as GOTM. Still can't believe it. Weird, never seen him in person or even had a conversation with him. He will be missed around here.

So sorry to hear about Walkerman. He was a great soul and will be missed. Not too long ago I bought some gold Shaller tuners from him and we had a nice conversation.. As a tribute to him, I post a picture of my all Koa Parlor which he helped to dress up. Deepest sympathies to his family. As to his "Larrivee" family, he will be sorely missed!

I agree wholeheartedly.  I would propose to the Admin's that they attempt to collect/arrange some photos of his guitars to honor his passion on the August GOTM...

Right on! Has anyone been in contact with his wife, Thelma, by the way? Someone should send her a link to this thread and all the sentiments within.
