I am glad I got to see him play with Tony Trischka in a neat old theatre in Philly last year. Saw him many times at Merlefest. Highlights were seeing him play free at the July 4 Firefly Festival in Foscoe NC in the mid 90s and at the Love Auditorium at Davidson College in the 80s. He was a kind gentle biblical soul who graced us all with his mellifluous voice and scintillating flat picking. God bless, Doc.

Very sad news. Saw him once with his son Merle many years ago. What a guitar picker! He will be missed!
