Pipe club meeting: Saturday October 8th at 1 PM, RJ’s Fine Cigars
Las Vegas International pipe show: Oct. 21-23
Greetings Fellow pipe smokers,
Although it is still warm outside, we hope that you are able to enjoy the seasonal change by getting out for a stroll with the pipe, in a more hospitable environment!
We had a great turnout at Maduro’s on Wednesday night, Paul was out of state so we missed seeing him, and hope that his journey was safe, and a time of relaxation. Joe Fabian was in attendance, and the conversation among the group was phenomenal. I am always impressed by the breadth and depth of conversation of the attendees. I will send out an email later in the month to remind everyone about the next pipe night which will take place on the 19th.
This Saturday’s Pipe club meeting will be the last one before the pipe show in Vegas, if you are looking to rideshare as a driver to the event or as a rider, click “reply all” to let us know.
Broken Pipe: Rande L. Reed
On a sad note, I am sad to announce the passing of pipe club member Rande Reed, I was notified of the passing yesterday:
“Hi Charles,
My name is Wayne Bliss. I am a long time friend of Rande Reed. I am writing you to let you know that after a courageous 2nd battle with cancer, Rande has passed away. In addition to being an outstanding musician and master brewer, he was also also quite a pipe fan.”
I am still trying to find out when he passed, I searched the obituaries and have come up empty, I am waiting to hear back from Wayne Bliss, I will send a follow up email if there is a funeral for him.
Rande attended our pipe club meeting at the invitation of Dave Peterson in December of 2019, He had just moved to Sun City from Washington. He did not attend very many meetings after that, and I suspect with his underlying health issues and Covid, it made sense not to do so. It would have been great to learn more about brewing and music which he excelled in, and his knowledge of all things related to the pipe, which I am told was immense.
He was interviewed by Brian Levine in the past (2016), I had heard it at the time, but I never connected the dots when he attended! You can scroll to about the 10 minute mark to hear the interview, quite an interesting fellow:

And his music, which I found quite enjoyable:

In light of his passing, it is appropriate to dedicate our next meeting this Saturday to his memory.
