Why does someone that is dead need a benefit? Serious question.

Are you fucking serious? That's your post in this topic?? Think for one second. Just one second.

The surviving family members undoubtedly spent a ton of money bringing him back to the US and for services. There's also the very real possibility that he supported people. The concert is also billed as a "tribute" for this outstanding performer, who I only had the pleasure of seeing once with Regina at Beacon Theater last summer.

while the life of a touring cellist probably commands a reasonable lower middle class income (when there is a tour on), it probably doesn't leave too much of a safety net for the wife and young child at home.

Anyone that is a cellist probably came from a rich background. Swimming in Lake Geneva is not something for poor folks. Sad for someone to pass away so young.
