My Sharona http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVdnqEyToqg

Just saw this, and don't think anything was posted about it yet. Sharona is one of my all time favorite songs.

Sorry to see him go.

Geoffrey Fieger, Doug's brother, is a Detroit area attorney (my attorney at one time) and he is the one that landed the deal for his brother and that song.

I think I saw in the article that another of the band members had died from cancer previously, as well. Sad stuff.

*throws in a Yay! for Jeff*
