Help with "Big" John Harte's final expenses

With a heavy heart, I announce that "Big" John Harte--my beloved life partner and best friend that I was blessed to spend the last 45 years with-- passed away on Friday, February 11th.

John was beloved by his family and a nation of rock music fans known for his high-profile position as head of security with bands like KISS, IRON MAIDEN, PRINCE, BILLY IDOL, and others.

Over the past few years, John was delighted and grateful to meet so many fans of the bands he worked for, whom were, to his surprise, also fans of him. We know that was one of the reasons why John was dedicated to meeting as many people as he could and share his unique experiences in the rock-concert industry.

Although John's health had been in decline, my son Brian and I were unprepared for his sudden, unexpected death. We seek to raise funds for assistance with John's final medical expenses, outstanding bills, and costs for his services.

Any and all donations made are deeply appreciated. Thank you...
