Not one of his most well known songs, but “Illinois” always tugged at my heart, while reminding me of where I’m from.

Very sad day indeed. Rest in peace.

This was also one of my favorite songs...I could feel the lonliness of this young man- out in the world- but missing home! His early albums were the ones that ‘Captured’ me right from the start.

But anything and everything he did was wonderful to me!

I admired, too, that he followed his heart and did the music that he wanted to do- I liked that he explored new avenues down through his long musical adventure!

And I was with him all the way-and marveling at all he did.

Oh!
I will miss him!
