Wonderful piece (scroll down destination page for article) in today’s Oakland Tribune on Matthew’s death, on the shivah that ended last night, the memorial funds, the upcoming concert, and Sam’s dedicated work standing at the accident site with a sign, seeking witnesses. The story quotes visitor comments from this web site.
Matthew Sperry in Memoriam
Dedicated to the memory of bassist / father / husband Matthew Sperry, who touched so many with his love, honesty, humor, and music.
the stories of matt’s recent ventures always filter through the grapevine and make there way back to seattle. last nite came a story that matt had been killed. he will always be in my heart as one of the best people i’ve known. it makes me smile and giggle to think of him, his funny ways and his most excellent, expert instructions for brown rice cooking. i love you matt.
