Did an hour interview with him last April prior to my talk on the history of jazz flute playing for ARSC. The short list of surviving flutists from that era is dwindling down to Frank Wess and not much else.

Sorry to hear about Sam.

Marshall Allen (b. 1924) still plays flute with the Sun Ra Arkestra. 
Frank Strozier (b.1937) seems to still be doubling on flute.
