RIP Obie Yagdar
It is with a terribly heavy heart I have to say that we have lost Obie. His daughter posted a touching memorial on Facebook minutes ago.
Please join me in raising a glass and listening to some good music in memory of one of the good ones.
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

This is absolutely devistating news.
I was very fortunate to have met him on several occasions.
He was so kind and humble, but also larger than life.
It’s going to take a while to get this knot out of my stomach.
Rest in peace my friend…
You will always be in my prayers.
Your friend,

I received nothing but kindness and generosity from Obie. Truly a wonderful spirit.

Although I did not know Obie, I have only heard kinds words for him.
Sad when a good one is lost.

His kind of music although not bad by far is not my favorite. I am listening to it and raising a glass in his memory.
I don't know for sure but a good chance that this was his last radio broadcast.

RIP Obie

If there was ever a true Renaissance Man it was Obie.
This is truly terrible news. I will miss him terribly.No matter how many men you kill you can't kill your successor-Emperor Nero
