Al final de la pequeña "carta" reza el nombre de una de sus canciones más populares, The Spirit Carries On. Desde aquí mis condolencias para la familia y amigos del padre de un tremendo ídolo e inspiración para mí (algunos conocerán mi relato con Portnoy en su concierto y lo importante que fue para mí).
Un saludo.

my idol and my father, Howard Portnoy.
He passed away this morning at 3:38 am with his loving wife Trish and myself by his side after a 6
month battle with cancer.
He was an amazing person whose lively spirit was a tremendous inspiration to me and to most
people that had the pleasure to know him.
He will be sorely missed by so many friends and family - but none more so than his wife Trish, his
daughter in law Marlene, his grandchildren Melody and Max and yours truly.
