Stevie's manager is dead
I think Sheryl Louis is still her main manager, but Howard K was her management company.

And the follow-up from Fleetwood Mac's manager...
http://www.pollstar.com/news_article.aspx?ID=829055 Azoff Issues Statement Regarding Kaufman's Passing 01:01 PM Thursday 1/19/17 0 | | Irving Azoff has released a short but moving statement about the passing of his former partner, Howard Kaufman. Howard was a giant among men. He never sought the spotlight, but was the best in the business. We worked together for more than 45 years. He was a great influence on me and taught me a lot. Despite his major health issues, he always wanted to work till the end and I’m glad he got his wish. It’s a tragic loss for our industry. He will be missed by me as well as scores of others he touched.
