Thoughts about the Passing of A Legend, Whose Songs Moved Me. Flying High Overhead

I had tickets to see Gordon Lightfoot play live again recently. I have loved his music for many years. The original show date was canceled and rescheduled for mid-April. I checked out the available tickets for the new show and it was pretty much sold out. The show has canceled again with a new date in September? I believe? Due to his being in his 80's now, I was concerned it might have been health related.

Late on Monday afternoon, I heard a news break story playing clips from his songs, and the way that the reporter was speaking of Gordon as in the past, my heart sank and they announced his passing into eternity. I turned off the radio and listened to his music instead. He was a legend to be sure. I am sad that I didn't get to see him live one more time. I am grateful for the times I saw him perform in the past. He will be missed. Godspeed Gordon Lightfoot.
