Guest Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 All are welcome to come to John Stubblefield's memorial service in New York City. Musicians will be performing John's original music. 25th September 2005, 7:30 pm at Saint Peter's Church (East 54th street at Lexington avenue) Thanks for all the beautiful messages posted in memory of John. He was a man full of passion. He always told me he was born from passion. He had it to the very end. peace. Katherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValerieB Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 i'd give anything to attend the service for this incredibly special man but it's just not possible for me given that it will take place 3,000 miles away. i will also be there in spirit and hope many of my nyc friends are able to make it. john stubblefield will always be remembered and praised for the unique, beautiful, talented man he was. and i'm constantly listening to his most recent musical effort, "I Am Three"!
