Many fond memories associated with Bacharach's music. Remember a TV Special, perhaps Chevrolet Presents Burt Bacharach (1972) listed on imdb, where he conducted an orchestra playing Nikki. He had written the piece to honor his daughter and told the orchestra to think of her before they began. Of course, many of us also remember the piece as the theme to the ABC Movie of the Week.

The obits of my favorite movie composers seem to hit me harder than those of most musical artists. I remember an extended sad period when Mancini passed. Same for John Barry, James Horner and Jerry Goldsmith. Was apprehensive when John Williams cancelled some London concerts a few years ago.
