Rich visited Michael Ehrhardt in August, after Michael’s strokes, and reports: “His speech was good enough to understand the gist, with the occasional phrase clear as a bell. He has full mobility with his right side which means he will be able to play a keyboard with that hand and arm at some point in the future, although it will be frustrating given the level at which he used to play. The guy has guts and gumption I must say. It was very emotional for both of us to meet in person for the first time in (many) years, although we’ve been corresponding a lot since our 50th reunion until his stroke earlier this year. His family is wonderful and he is their main project. They’ve pooled their social security checks and all live together!”
