He was. I'm sorry I couldn't make it to the Dan (I had the Williamstown
Fest on, which was great fun)
I first met Shelton when I was about 17, so it's a long time. I remember
him kindly telling me that my poetry was "too polite", which at the time was
quite true. I had many enjoyable encounters with him over the years. He had
a sort of wrecked nobility. His death comes as a bit of a shock; I didn't
know he was ill. Was it sudden? I'm glad to hear it was peaceful. Yes,
peace to his soul.
Best
