I am undoubtedly the oldest person who has joined this group--but I'm very young for my age!
Just a week ago my one and only brother took his journey across to the other side. He was a precious person, disabled from birth. I'm happy for him now that he is free from his struggles here in this life. I just want to say how comforting it is now to listen to Gordon's beautiful voice--so soft, so strong--well, there are no words good enough to say what Gordon and his songs mean to me, especially right now when I'm hurting.
The other subject I want to bring up is the memories many of you have of meeting Gordon and actually conversing with him. I saw him in concert at the Universal Ampitheater--was it '79? But I was all engrossed in my quite new husband at the time--and I sat there just enjoying the music and having my first contact with pot smokers!
I would revel in any descriptions any of you wish to offer of your contacts with the great Gordon Lightfoot. How did he look? What did you talk about with him? What about him impressed you the most? Thank you. Brave Soul.
