It's been a long time since I heard anything about Katz' condition since his stroke. I used to have his e-mail address and his wife Peggy sent me several updates but it has been many months. I'm sorry to say I failed to keep those messages before I got a new computer so I no longer have their address. Any info is appreciated.
Katz is now living in Panama City Bch. Fl. or was about 8 months ago. I went down to see Ray Price in concert. He was escorted by someone. It is so sad, he knows what a steel guitar is, but can't play at all. I am not sure if he had a stroke or what. He was really a great picker in his time.
