From you, at the early age of 17, I learned to play the mood synthesizers and other keyboards. You will be missed greatly by all above. No one can replace the USS.Woo!!!!!! Long Live the Funk!!!!!!! Thank you Bernie for all you've done. And a Special Thank-You for the Autographed photo disc cover.

I've been a Funkadelic fan going all the way back to Free your mind, Maggot Brain and America Eats it's young. Joyful process was the song that really put me onto Bernie in a major way. Here's hoping your transition was a Joyful Process. Fly on funkateer.

Introduced to you by my Funky college roommate back in the late 70's, then reacquainted when you took up with my favorite 80's band Talking Heads. I had the opportunity on several occasions to meet you and the Mrs. at NAMM (Moog and DSI booths), and you were always as nice as you were talented. May your transition be smooth....
