THE REST OF THE STORY:
Tom's Father Gary, shown here with wife JoAnn,
Tom's awesome mother. This is Robin's
dojo family and best friends for life.

Gary, is Tom and Robin's Master Sensei,
and he took this shot of Robin
back in the good ol days...
Shared for a good giggle..
"Dang, was I really that skinny??"

To be serious for a moment,
Gary's influence on Robin's life has been quite profound.
His teachings, and sharing of Philosophy and writings by men such as Gichin Funakoshi and Miyamoto Musashi have brought Robin through some times which should have killed him. No lie, no overstatement.
Robin simply owes Gary his life. On several occasions.
Even some of which Gary to this day, doesnt even know the depth and seriousness of.

Robin says:
"From the heart Gary, God bless you sir. Your humanity and intelligence are astounding. I am proud to know you as my Sensei, my teacher and as my very dear friend. Thank you for being there throughout my youth, and to this very day. Your insights have saved my life several times.
I'm glad I listened. Thank you for taking the time.
I am honored to know you, and forever in your debt.
As I watch my favorite Martial Arts movie, "The Perfect Weapon" - I see a lot of myself in Jeff Speakman's character's struggle with inner turmoil, and the scenes with his mentors reminds me so much of you and our time together in the dojo. Great memories man..

Your tireless and continuing work with students in our local schools bears the fruit of new generations of people who learn from you, how to be kind and good people- focused, and goal oriented with strength of character and HEART.
Your son Tom does you proud, carrying on with many of your traits in his dojo, work, and life to this day."

You have my word that I mean to do you proud in my daily life.
My music and my own personal mission statement reflect goals which
represent this ideal. As I live every day like it is my last, I hope to touch
hearts minds and souls as you have done throughout your
own teaching career. Cheers and long life to you.

MANY THINGS DB II:
This is a tribute section to the guitarist
that Robin admires most.
Doyle Bramhall2 plays the way Robin does,
"leftyupsidedown"
as you "right handers"
like to call it... ;)

Doyle is from Dallas, Texas as is Robin,
and also a peer in age, so he was finally
someone Robin could really relate to.
He represents the Texas that Robin
missed out on by moving to New England,
and inspired Robin to pick up
the sixstring again after many years
of fearful and foolish self imposed
mental blockage....
Thanks Doyle.

Doyle is featured in a wonderful movie by
Andrew Shapter and Joel Rasmussen,
called
"Before The Music Dies"(B4MD)
Robin had the pleasure of hosting a screening
of this movie at Dartmouth College, in Nov. '06
where a new friendship was born when
Andrew Shapter graciously came for a Q&A
following the screening.

You're alright Andrew,
keep up the good work!

Andrew is now working on his next movie,
originally titled "The Greener Side",
now known as "Happiness Is"
Go take a look!
------------------------------
Then in the Summer of 2007 Robin and Lori
had the pleasure of finally meeting Doyle
(who is the main focus of B4MD) and
Double Trouble when they made the long
overdue trip to Texas.
Doyle was a total gent,
and is a credit to his profession.
