Oh man.. That's horrible. I was one of his last students while I was doing
my Master's Degree at USC. He is also the reason why I am working as a
sound engineer and not a clarinetist. He was my only teacher that sat me
down and spelled out how there was no shame in not performing.

He will certainly be missed.
