| Post subject: | My mother in law just passed away... |
I've been trying to spend more time sharing stuff with you folks, even though Roger thinks I should spend the time producing upcoming CDs. So with sadness, I'll share on a personal level. Mary Ann's mom (yes, the Mary Ann thanked in our booklets) died peacefully in her sleep last night. She was a kind and beautiful lady all the way through this final gesture to join with her husband, who died a few years earlier. These two kind people (Amelia and Victor) brought Mary Ann into the world, who later joined with me. And still later, Mary Ann and I brought Regina and Veronika into this same world. The circle of life does exist. Mary Ann is flying out immediately and I and our two daughters will drive out there over the holidays. "There" is a very tiny farming town in Southwestern Colorado, nestled quietly alongside the Navajo Indian reservation. How small? If you want to go to the post office, you just drive up in front and park. Maybe two spaces, no meters. That small. Anyway, as I prepare for this emotional trip, hoping to lend support over these next few days to Mary Ann as she handles her loss... I remind myself of our vulnerability. That's it. Nothing profound, really. Just that I'm thinking we're here for awhile, we try to sort out our left feet from our right feet, we hope maybe to get some things done and sometimes we do get things done... and then we say goodbye. --Doug |

Dear Doug, A very moving post, and I just wanted to offer my deepest condolences while trotting around the board late tonight, to you and your family. Life is short isn't it, and forgive for somewhat going off topic, but I think this is why film music, at least for me, is so valuable. It can move beyond being a record or a sound on a DVD/Blu Ray and become something more profound, and help us to cope with and recognize emotions that other music in life cannot. I have been a friend,supporter, customer,fan of you and your label for 18 years now, and just had to say it was very personal and brave of you to share such a thing with your friends here. Sympathies from my family to yours, Sean |

Doug, thank you for sharing more personal stories (while producing CDs). It's really appreciated for your true fans out here. We really adore getting to know you guys a little better. It's unfortunate your story involves such a tragedy, but you and your family have my condolences. Thanks for being here for your fans (and, of course, family), and thanks for being a true inspiration on how to lead a crowd into a pleasure zone through both taste and morality. I can speak for myself; I can be broke, on the street, and I'd still walk into a public library to sit right here... with Intrada. |

Doug, I extend my condolences to your entire family. In times of grief there can be few priorities greater than reflection, love, and memories. When the family has reunited in Colorado, may you all find occasion for comfort through shared reminiscences of tenderness and humor; that has long been a healing outlet within my own family. If everyone offers, there are bound to be stories which someone never knew about -- but in which all can recognize the departed. Many of us are here who care from a distance. |

We all know how much you're strongly linked to your family as you're the one who uses since 25 years the initiales of your wife on your cd... My thoughts go to you, Mary Ann and your daughters. |

Very sorry to hear that, what sad news. FORGET about the CD's. Family comes first, we all have plenty of great CD's to listen to. I'm glad she was such a special lady. Hang in there Fakes. |
