As one who was privileged to have participated in a few if David and Jose's late-night (well, alright, all-night) seances, I can attest to everything he wrote in the second paragraph, and most of us know the truth of the first. In the last year and a half, Jose and I would get on text "bend

I am so sad to hear this news. I didn't know Jose well before the 2015 reunion, although we were together in that 1995 Midsummer. I was a punk fairy, too! I loved his generous spirit, humor, and willingness to help out in so many ways. I can hear him singing, too, Clayton! Hey Nonny Nonny, indeed.

What a blow this is. I've known Jose since "the beginning". We have been frolicking since 1988 or so when I met him in a Spring class.

Oh, this is sad news. I only just got to know Jose at the last reunion, and what fun it was to play with him. He radiated. Delight. Joy. Love. And what a lovely voice. Thank you, Don, and thanks to everyone for these recollections. I am so sorry not to have a reprise reunion with Jose, sorr

Thanks for sharing this hard news.  I'll always remember the great joy Jose created and shared with his Grumio and the good times we shared in Austin after Winedale.  When he was joyful it was always effectively infectious.  My life was better through knowing him. On 1/17/2022 1:46:19 PM, SuDon

He did indeed do that. Because of the snoring in the room itself. R On Tue, Jan 18, 2022 at 10:57 AM Suhler, Jayne wrote: > You know a person's character by the way they treat their dogs, and Jose > treated his like royalty, including his fat pit bull Tinkerbell. He made me > laugh out loud an

You know a person's character by the way they treat their dogs, and Jose treated his like royalty, including his fat pit bull Tinkerbell. He made me laugh out loud and I’m filled with a deep sadness that he's gone. Jayne P.S. Didn’t he drag a mattress from one of the beds into the closet in ‘15?

I have wonderful memories of Jose from our last in person reunion, including him sleeping in the closet because all of us that were his roommates were such loud snorers! His was a warm wonderful soul, and he will be missed by all that knew him, I am sure. R On Mon, Jan 17, 2022 at 4:31 PM 'Alice
