I am sure she meant Kratzman, Les. Joni is so often making reference to
him in many of her interviews. I do wish you could have seen her face
last October when they surprised Joni with his presence at the end of
the Hommage in Toronto. It was Kratzman who was chosen to give Joni her
award that night. She was so happy to see him...and obviously
overwhelmed. Not a dry eye in the house. It was so special. The two of
them sat together and had a good old talk on stage, like old friends,
and Joni was just beaming. I am sure there are photos of the two of
them together at the event.
thanks for the great quote and for doing such a fine job in keeping us
informed. We appreciate your efforts so very much Les.
