Photos from Butch Lanham

Gene,

Warmest of greetings.

I appreciate the time that it must take to keep up a site as well kept as yours so I’ll be brief.

I’ve been a member for a good while, I just enjoy reading other peoples posts.

I have a fair amount of personal photos of Leon that , with your permission, I can send them to you and you can look at them first and decide whether or not to post them. I just want them to be available to you for your site. no strings attached.

I also have a bunch of photos from Leon’s memorial. A couple of you. My brother in law took a bunch of photos with my camera and a good amount of them captured the mood of the gathering.

I will attach a sample for your perusal.. in the photo……left to right.

Will Arnold, Buzzy Deloach, Leon , and your’s truly on the right.

Somewhere I have a full program of the Wolfson ball park concert.

We four were the final chapter of The King James Version. We found out later that there was a Silverman after the King James part. Leon left us in St. Pete to play with LS for the first time. Buzzy died a long time ago with cerocis of the liver.

Coincidentally, Will Arnold is still kicking and lives here in Dalton. We reminisce every time that we are together.

Well I will bid you goonight.

Best regards,
Butch Lanham

    Butch Lanham-
    We knew each other in Orlando- mid ’70s. Been trying to find out what you’re up to. You had an apartment in my 3-plex near Winter Park. Stucco siding in front. Remember the group “Love Song”? murphbabe@yahoo.com
