There is a detailed e-mail going around that Gunny has died, on Memorial Day, of pneumonia, at home.

Unfortunately, nothing in the papers since, nothing on the internet, and Gunny was in DC for the Memorial Day Parade.

See the link.

This same thing happened with Gordon Lightfoot a couple months ago.. Someone started a rumor on the internet and things got out of hand. Pretty soon it was all over the wires..
GL said he left his dentist's office and was driving home, turned on the radio and heard the radio announcer say they were playing Gordon's songs the rest of the day in tribute to the late legend..... He took it very well, but said it was very strange to hear your own obit.

If it's on the internet,from someone you don't know,
then it must be true.
