John F. Perry
It is with great sadness that we report that John Perry passed away on Friday, March 27, 2009, in Spokane, due to complications from surgery. John was 66, and succumbed only after putting forth great effort through several surgeries in the past few months. John and his wife Micki were among the original creators and founders of 3RFS more than 20 years ago, and John was the first president of 3RFS. The Perrys were the dreamers behind Tumbleweed Music Festival, now in its 13th year. John will be missed greatly.

Web site update underway:

Please excuse a few incomplete sections. Everything will be updated in a few days. The original site coding was written in 1995 and, while performance schedules were updated, much of the original coding remained unaltered. Web standards have evolved greatly since 1995, and the new page coding is written in standards-compliant XHTML, with extensive use of cascading style sheets (CSS.) If you are not sure what this means, no worries! The technical details are not visible, but the site should load more quickly, should display as intended in all modern web browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Safari, ...) and should be accessible to the widest possible range of users. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
