Thanks For The Obituary

Thank you for the caring words about Sam Brown (“Sam Brown: 1958-2022,” EW 8/25) and sharing the circumstances around his passing.

I had numerous good chats with Sam outside the post office. He would play. I would listen. Just a gentle music-loving soul. I didn’t know that he was unhoused. But I support buskers, and told him so, and I always made sure I had some cash in my pocket on my runs to the post office in case he might be there.

May he rest gently in the sturdy arms of Love.
