I didn't know that much about him, but between this and another article I read, where it mentioned he had been married for 56 years, he sounds like one of the most down to Earth rockers ever. A family man who saw it as a job, and it appears he avoided a lot of the "sex and drugs" part of rock and roll. I had always figured all the Rolling Stones were heavily into that. Nice to see that he seemed to have a good head on his shoulders through it all. RIP.
