Poppa Neutrino's Jazz Funeral Parade - Credit Dwight Marshall

Back in January I was contacted by one of Poppa Neutrino’s daughters asking if she could have a copy of the photo I had taken of him when I was in New Orleans last year (see thumbnail). Unfortunately he had passed away, and she was after the picture for his obituary. I was happy to oblige. The picture was never used but she made a copy for his jazz funeral parade (picture by Dwight Marshall), which, looks fun for a funeral! It was later offered to the Mississippi, along with his ashes. Please check Poppa out on the link below, a very special person and unique life.
