LAMS,

Thank you for the information on Gord's wives and families. I know Fred and Ingrid are pictured on the Sunday Concert LP. So was he ever married to Cathy the mother of Eric?

I know in the SongBook book Gord says that The Last Time I Saw Her is about unrequited love. I always thought it was about a love of his that died, you know 'beneath a battered marking stone it lies forgotten'. I guess I was interpretting the lyrics literaly instead of symbolicly.

How do all you gals and guys (maybe I mean lovely ladies and handsome gentlemen) know so much about Gord? I am amazed at the depth of knowledge you all have about the man and his life.
