Sad news indeed. This just killed my day. What an underappreciated artist he was. I was actually in the middle of putting together a book about him which I had been researching the last two years, but it kind of centred around doing new interviews with him. His health was so poor the last 9 months that I never got the chance to meet him. I wish I had tried to do this a couple years earlier.
RIP Kersh.
