Robert Nelson RIP

Back in the 80's when my boyfriend and I were obsessed with juggling, one of the must see jugglers was Robert Nelson (aka Butterfly Man).  He was a fixture in the San Francisco street performers circles.  I knew of him from that and also from his work as MC with the International Juggler's Assoc.  Did he ever know me by name? Probably not. But I was sad to hear that he'd just passed on. So I give a silent 5 ball reverse cascade for you Robert Nelson.  I just found out he had a Facebook page. I wish I'd known earlier.

Still juggling after all these years.
