Tonight (Sunday Nov. 23rd) John Spalding the guitar player of Ninety Pound Wuss, & Raft of Dead Monkeys (two previous bands I was in) and played in S&THT on occasion died of cancer. He was 33 years old, and was married to Jody Spalding. He had no children, but loved kids and always wanted to be a Dad. He was one of my best friends and I will miss him terribly. He spent the last few years working on an album that he always wanted to make. You can listen to it at http://www.myspace.com/lovelandrock Lot's of his friends from Seattle played on it including Matt Johnson who was in Ninety Pound Wuss, Raft of Dead Monkeys, and S&THT as well.
If any body would like to help out with a very large amount of medical expenses that accrued over the last few years there is a benevolent fund set up in his name at Bank of America. It is "John D Spalding Medical Fund" you can go in to any BofA and make a deposit. All funds will go to the family to help pay expenses. Please keep Johns family in prayer.
Love
Jeff Suffering
