Just awful for friends family and fans. He was a wonderful guy.

That is correct. And if anyone wants to ask UPF or Southern Empire questions those are definitely acceptable.
That was UPF with Mark Trueack and Sean times had writing credits on that album as well so its sort of is a Unitopia album.
Great I will ask them.
I love Tim's contributions I specifically asked for him when we flew them in for Chicago / RoSfest he was not available at that time.
