The Grace

Jerry Finn

1970 - 2008

Today is a sad day. Producer Jerry Finn died after suffering a severe brain hemorrhage in July. He never regained consciousness and it has been said if her were to do so, he would have been in a vegetative state. I'm sure most people that knew him would say they knew he wouldn't want to live that way. His family knew he didn't. He was taken off life support on the 9th.

It's so surreal to know that someone who played a major part in so many albums that helped form me into the person I am today, will not be a part of anything else. These albums to be will now be a reminder of a life that was ended too soon. Far too soon. He was an amazing producer and will be missed by many.

Rest In Peace Jerry Finn. Your work here is done.
