Thoughts about life and compost: Lee Hayes was the bass voice in the Weavers (Pete Seeger, Ronnie Gilbert, Fred Hellerman, and Hayes (and later, later Eric Darling stood in for Pete), the leaders of the first Great American Folk Music Scare. They hit the pop charts with Goodnight Irene and Tzena, Tzena, Tzena. (Great film of the Weavers here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tvo-78kG5I )

Hayes led a long and interesting life, and when he passed, per his wishes, his ashes were mixed into his compost heap. Bio here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Hays
