Re: death notice
That is a damn shame
R.I.P. Jeff. Despite his disability and illness he continued to live life to its fullest and not to mention become a damn good musician as well. I was just watching RoadHouse the other night and i was wandering what he was doing these days. Once again R.I.P. Jeff.

TED NUGENT'S FORMER DRUMMER CLIFF DAVIES FOUND DEAD:
April 15, 2008
DALLAS, Ga. -- Police are investigating the apparent suicide of a former drummer for Michigan rocker Ted Nugent.
Corporal Brandon Gurley with the Paulding County Sheriff's department says 59-year-old Clifford Davies was found dead from a gunshot wound in his suburban Atlanta home Sunday.
Gurley says authorities are awaiting the results of an autopsy.
A woman who answered the phone at Davies' home said she wanted to check with her family before commenting.
Reed Beaver, who owns Equametric Studio in Marietta where Davies was a chief engineer, confirmed Davies was a drummer for Nugent and played on his trademark recording "Cat Scratch Fever."

Re: death notice
I have plenty of those and I don't worry about it. What are they going to do? Take my spleen for payment?
Re: death notice
If you're not sick enough the insurance practices in this country will make you that way. He's sick. Goes to the hospital to get well. Receives massive bills. Becomes depressed. Kills self.
Makes you not want to get help when you're sick
And, while I'm on this rant ... my dad had a heart attack in December. Had bypass surgery. Recovered at my house for over three weeks before returning home. One of his 10 prescriptions was for thirty one 81 mg aspirin. WTF? You can go to the Dollar Store and get two hundred 81 mg aspirin for $3. $ $ $ $ It's what makes the world go 'round. Oops, I meant to say, it's what makes us middle and lower classer's go broke.
Oh, here's another. Dad didn't ask for pain medication one solitary time during his one week rehab time in the hospital after the bypass. They send him home a prescription for 60 OC's with two refills. ?!?!?!?!
"Here, Dad. Let me dispose of those for you". Kidding ...

Re: death notice
John Routsey (sp?) had diabetes at an early age ( probably juvenile ). He left the band because of the wear and tear / the toll being in a touring band would take on his body. According to the article he gave up drumming and got into bodybuilding after leaving the band. The diet and exercise routine one must maintain to copete in bodybuilding are effective way s to manage diabetes without meds. With him dying at 55 its possible his diabetes was unmanageable. So his death may have not have been as much lifestyle as it was pre-existing condition.
Rest in Peace John.
