I am very sorry and very sad hearing this news, I didnt know this great man has died because I was sending him mails all the time and he was promptly answering me. I dont know what to say, I am really sad for his death. When I was reading about his death in the internet, I couldnt stop crying. Because, whatever I say about this man is not enough. I worked with him as a Translator in Iraq Mosul-Talfar, he was very kind with me and other Iraqies, and also he was very straight man and a good soldier. I cannot express my feelings anymore, but I can say this that USA has lost a great man.

this is his last mail:Mo!Great to hear from you! It is always a relief to hear from you and know you are still okay. I worry about my friends over there, to include you at the top of the list.I am well, as is my family. Tomorrow is Easter, which is a great time to be with family.Let me ask you something: can you tell me about, oh I don't know, five or ten of your favorite musicians? I'm trying to learn about music in Iraq, both traditional and current. I've been reading about maqam singers. I'd love to hear Mo's Top Ten, and as much as you want to tell me about what the music of each means to you. For example, I am a fan of Ozzy Osbourne, a British heavy metal singer, but not because of his lyrics (some are really stupid) or his voice (really nasal and pinched) but because of his guitarists and drummers. That guy picks the best musicians to back him up, and Randy Rhoads was the best of them. His solos were melodic, ryhthmically complex and had structure. Few guitarists before or since can say the same. Emotionally, the solos sound connected to the mood of the song (sometimes angry, brooding or dark) but take on a life of their own, and you can hear spirit and life in them.
If you don't have the time, or just don't want to do this, no worries. I'm awfully glad to hear from you. I hope you are able to find peace, happiness, and some air conditioning!Your friend,Bob
