    Gary Richrath, Original Lead Guitarist of REO Passes Away

    I grew up on their music and I loved how he played the guitar.

    Below is a message from Kevin Cronin, the lead singer of REO.

    "I feel so sad," Cronin wrote. "Gary was both a unique guitarist and songwriter, and the embodiment of the tough guy with a heart of gold."

    He said he learned most of what he knows about being in a rock band from Richrath.

    "The entire REO Family mourns his death and shares in the grief of his family, friends, and fans," he added.
    "These words do not come close to expressing the depth of emotions I am feeling at this time."
