I remember Jack Sanbower

It was so sad to learn of the passing of Jack Sanbower when I read about it this morning. I saw him when he was a member of Bluegrass Image at the Hyattstown, MD Bluegrass Festival in early July 1989,one of his bandmates was Pat White (now a fiddler of Country Current US Navy Band).
