In Memoriam: Bobby Palkovich of Merlin Music

I am shocked to hear the news of Bobby's passing. I owned his Merlins for quite a while and we became internet friends over the years. My sincere condolences to his family.

I find it a bit disconcerting to find criticism of Bobby Palkovic on a thread that should, according to how I see things, be dedicated to his memory. I understand the problems some folks are now facing. Serious problems. But I feel this is not the time and the place. This could be talked about on a dedicated thread and by contacting the family after allowing them appropriate time to grieve. IMHO.

An authoritative source posted about the circumstances on AA. If true, this makes Bobby's tragic passing even more tragic. It looks like he was putting on a very brave face while suffering terrible anguish behind the smile. I feel especially bad for his loved ones.
