Thanks Jim - I'll do that.

David,
It's definitely got some dieback at the very least, but it's mroe
likely
that it's diseased and rotting backwards. Prune all the way back down
the
canes till you reach living cane that's light colored at the core.
You've got to cut past the sick part or it'll keep dieing back. If it
reaches the bud union it's done for. Fertilize it now too.

Make sure when you prune, you use a wound dressing on the raw cane.
I've used regular tree wound dressing brush on and spray, as well as
plain Elmer's school glue. Something to seal the cane and help keep
cane borers out of it. |

I understand latex paint works too.
