Ben Tucker

Bummer day:  Our friend, Ben Tucker, a famous Savannah jazz musician, 82, was killed by a car ramming his golf cart.  Ben was a great guy and famous in black jazz/radio history.  Mostly he was the king of a 100+ year old bass fiddle.  He was gregarious, gentlemanly, inclusive, kindhearted, and much more.  I once played nine holes of golf with him and he made me believe I was a great player (trust me, I am not!)  As a star-level ambassador for Savannah, this is a great loss for the city, his sweet life, and his many friends.
