This is the web log of folklorist, musician, and bookseller Brent Tozzer. I intend the blog to be a gentle source of personal writings in-process, links, good books, and audio/visual items available to the discriminating browser. This is an unofficial site, and transitory, with links to more official sites. The opinions expressed are those of the author alone.

Uncle John Keeley Sullivan, of Cleveland Heights, Ohio
My Aunt Mary Lane's husband, my Uncle John, died a few days ago, at home. He leaves a fine set of memories, his children, my first cousins David, Wright, and Keeley, and their children, his grandchildren.
He was sharp and fun. He loved an intelligent conversation. An early date with my wife involved a game of charades while John and Mary Lane visited Keeley.
I envied their trips to Ireland while we were kids, put in context in this fine obituary, printed first in Cleveland then this Sunday in the Atlanta Journal-Consitution. When we can gather, we'll gather in Atlanta.
My mom met my Dad, BAT, Jr., during the wedding of John And Mary Lane in Cleveland.
God rest his soul.
