Anything that's been put out there by Jaimoe or Marc yet?
Not that they owe me or anybody else by doing this.
Hope they are OK
Jaimoe expressed his condolences.
With great sadness:
Butch Trucks, a founding member of The Allman Brothers Band, tragically died the night of January 24 in West Palm Beach, Florida. His wife, four children, four grandchildren and all of the Allman Brothers Band, their families and Road Crew survive Butch. The Trucks and Allman Brothers Band families request all of Butch’s friends and fans to please respect our privacy at this time of sadness for our loss. Butch will play on in our hearts forever.
Donations and remembrances in Butch’s name may be made to The Big House Museum in Macon, Georgia. www.thebighousemuseum.com

Other than "with great sadness," this is the ABB press release. Not that he owes anyone a word more, like islalala said.
How is everybody around here doing with Butch's passing? Has it gotten any easier to handle? I am still in a state of disbelief.
Memorial this past weekend in Macon with Jaimoe, Warren, Derek, Oteil, Marc, Jackie P., Jimmy Herring, Jimmy Hall, Duane Trucks, Bruce Katz, and others. Hosted by Vaylor.
Well there ya go, a proper memorial albeit a private one.
Glad to see that news as sad as this all is. I guess one concern I have is it appears Gregg was not there and does than mean he was not healthy enough to be there?

I read that he wishes to grieve privately and did not take part. Totally understandable, everybody deals with it their own way...

Yes that would be understandable.
