For those of you who, like me, have wondered about the absence of Jon  
Salley from these groups, a little sleuthing by Martin Smith seems to have  
turned up the unfortunate answer...
 
Jon E. Salley
    *   BORN: March 10, 1954  
    *   DIED: May 14, 2010  
    *   LOCATION: KS 
Sadly Jon has left us. I recall that he was sick, but never considered  the 
possibility that he had died. I figured he got tired or bored. I for one  
will miss him terribly. I can remember any number of great and amusing  off 
list exchanges over the years. He was one of my very first friends when I  
joined the Mellotronists list many years back and he was a very funny guy. and 
 also very talented.
 
Jon had been working on a new project, Tintagel. He has a web site, but  it 
doesn't look like he ever completed it. He also has his personal and  
Tintagel Myspace pages. Go listen to his music. Pretty damn good.
