His music and words touched us so, even in now in our 50's and 60's we  still love his music and how it still is enjoyed to this day. He will be missed...

Dear Dan , I'll light a candle for you tonight. Your music was a powerful gift to this world. ~ nhs from poughkeepsie, ny

Jean - Dan lives on in his music and in the hearts of all his fans. He is at peace. May you find your peace in his words, for they are truly his legacy. God Bless ~ Vicki

Growing up, I listened to your music regularly on the radio and, without intention, learned them by heart. It wasn't until later in life, as the encounter of life experiences and rights of passage were found, that your words took on such a different meaning and meant so much more to me. You will be terribly missed in the hearts of all. May your wife, Jean, find strength, both in the love of your family, an endless following of fans, and the powerful legacy which you leave behind. With deepest regrets ~ David Foito

It's difficult to understand why God chooses to take people who have so much love in their hearts and so much more to offer this world. The feeling of emptiness overwhelms me. I feel, as I'm sure all of us feel, short changed. Dan, I thank you for your sojourn here on this planet. You have made this world more bearable to endure with your beautiful music and words. My heart weeps with your absence. I hope to see you in your next sojourn. ~ Alan James Hutchinson

God speed, Dan. Your gifts of music and words blessed us and touched us for  so many years. Thank you and may you now rest in peace. Jean, our heartfelt  prayers and thoughts go out to you and your family. May they bring you  comfort and peace. God Bless. ~  Mike and Amy, Frederick, MD

To this very day the greatest concert I ever attended was circa 1975. Dan opened up for Dave Mason at the Auditorium North Hall in Memphis, Tennessee.  I fell in love with him then and have followed him since that time.  I grieve for his lose but celebrate what joy he gave me.  God Bless his family. Thanks Dan for enhancing my life. ~ Pamela G. Burgess

To all of the friends and family of Dan - My deepest condolences.  I will miss him and his music - especially his wonderful words.  But his songs (and his memory) will always remain in my heart. ~ Linda Tommasulo

When I heard of Dan's passing this morning I was heartbroken.  For years I have followed his music since the early 80's and have loved all of his songs. My one goal in life was to go to a Dan Fogelberg concert, but now I'll never get that chance. His music & lyrics were inspirational and there was not one song that was the same. He shall forever be missed. We will always think of him each New Years Eve. We love you Dan and will miss you! ~ Tom & Dale Mauldin

I thank Dan for the monstrous legacy of beautiful songs he has given to the world. I'm only 28, and am happy when the elder are shocked to hear I know who Dan Fogelberg is, and that I know more songs than they do. I've met friends my age along my life journey and recall touching memories of how "Longer" came into their life. "Missing You" and "Lonely in Love" have always been my favorites. You will be celebrated every day, Dan, without fail. Many thanks ~ David Daskal

Thank you for many years of beautiful music. You will live on through the lives of those you touched. May God be with you and your family.

I am truly saddened at the passing of such a giant in my life musically, I was driving thru the mountains of Idaho yesterday taking in the lyrics of the Phoenix CD. I have no words to express my loss here at Christmas time, except he inspired my life in the West and my connection to the animals of the earth in a giant way. I vividly remember his  lyrics running thru my mind just this fall as I gazed upon a red tailed hawk soaring thru a canyon close to home. I was so hoping he would recover. ~ Grant & Kimbra Kline

Your soothing voice, emotional lyrics and kindness will be missed. May there be light upon your path. Jean, you are in my thoughts and prayers. ~ Patty

I, too, felt the sadness one feels when hearing of the death of a close friend. Dan, your music and poetry spoke to me through most of my life, and I will miss you greatly. Your life may have ended prematurely, but you touched more hearts than most of us can ever hope to do. May you be at peace. Jean, peace and love to you and your family at this difficult time. Know that you are in our hearts. Blessings ~ Cynthia

Wearing the green ribbon today for Dan.

Dan, thank you for making my spirit soar through your music. I often sang with you in my 20s and 30s singing your musical masterpieces while listening to all your albums. I had the pleasure of seeing you on your Innocent Age tour as well as 2-3 other tours. What a performance you gave. I will never forget the tribute you gave to John Lennon in the Innocent Age tour after he was killed. It was so moving. Your music brought us all through good days and bad and I believe will live in our hearts forever. Thank you for all you gave us. We will miss you. Now go show those angels who the true leader of the band is . . . condolences to your wife and the world as we experience a true loss. ~ Donna Summers,  Somerset, NJ

Dear Jean, I'm so sorry to hear of Dan's passing. God bless you and your family. I will love him forever. Thinking that he is starting a new life somewhere in heaven, you may feel better. Hoping that his voice comforts you through his songs. His voice is so sweet and will be in our heart forever. Regards ~ Oi Yee Tang from H.K.

Dear Jean, In June, I lost my younger brother to Pancreatic Cancer at the age of 40. My father also passed away from cancer five years ago. While news of Dan's death brought back so many memories of my own loss, it has led me to further discover Dan's music, and provided me with a much a deeper understanding of his life and legacy. His music was open, honest, and often compassionate. This Christmas season, I and my family have discovered Dan's CD "The First Christmas Morning", and played it while opening our gifts this year at our family gathering. I've traveled to Bethlehem, and at Christmas time feel a sense of loss at not being able to be at the Church of the Nativity for the Christmas Celebration. But Dan's music has allowed me to truly feel the presence of Christ's birth. While Dan's death has brought sadness into our holiday season, his Christmas music has brought much joy to what would normally be a quite sad Christmas season. My sympathies go out to you. May you be richly blessed this Holiday Season! ~ Doug Delorge, Biddeford, Maine

It is with great sadness that I recently heard the news of Dan's passing. I've been playing guitar for 37 years and consider myself lucky to have learned so much about guitar playing, counterpoint, and music from Dan. I consider "Souvenirs" to be one of the great albums of all time. I have it up there with Allman Bros live at the Fillmore East. When I first heard this album I wanted to sell my guitars and forget singing altogether. But, with perseverance and being blessed with a great ear, I was able to pick up quite a bit. I learned drop D tuning and other tunings by trying to learn Dan's music.

His legacy is so much more than recorded music. There have to be thousands of players like me that owe whatever level of competency they've reached to Dan as a teacher. And add to that the many people that have heard those people play and have enjoyed their playing. He was, in my view, the most complete musician I've ever had the pleasure of picking apart. "Part of the Plan" and "Morning Sky" are staples in my repertoire and have been for decades. I had the pleasure of seeing him only once at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, NJ. I was in awe of his command of both his voice and the guitar. His shows at this time had him playing solo in the early part if the show. You could hear a pin drop when he played this part of his show. And, he was flawless. My sincerest condolences to his loved ones and deepest thanks for the wonderful musicianship he displayed as well as thanks for the priceless lessons I've learned from him. God Bless ~ Tom S

Our thoughts and prayers are with you & your family.  Thank you for sharing Dan with us. Sincerely ~ Mary Helmers & Family

I never met Dan, but I loved his music and lyrics. They both touched my life. Dan left us very young. I've been wanting to see him, but the opportunity never came. He was one of the finest musicians I have ever heard. May God be with him.~ Herman Neufeld, Munich

My name is Noboru Takagi, living in Aichi Pref. Japan. I’ve been listening to Dan Fogelberg’s music for over 30 years. Last Monday, I heard the sad news, the death of Dan. His music has been giving me good spirit , encouraging me all the time. In fall 2004, I read about his battle with prostate cancer in the homepage. Since then, I’ve been expecting to hear a good news about recovery of it, because I’ve lost my elder sister for brain cancer in 2003. We’ve lost good musicians: John Denver in 1997, Warren Zevon in 2004. This time, we lost Dan. We Japanese fans of Dan Fogelberg miss him, but his beautiful music will never disappear. Thanks for all, Dan and the staff of The Living Legacy Website.

Dear Jean and the Fogelberg family and friends: I feel as though I have listened to Dan's music most of my life. I remember being in high school and the memories of his music, then touched my life so much. His music is a part of my past and a part of my life. I feel a great loss in my heart, but I am so glad I was able to share and enjoy his music throughout the years. It is evident that Dan was a loving, caring man, with more talent and insight than any other. His voice always seemed that of an angel's with harmonious emotion that reached right down to your heart and soul. There aren't many artists that can do that. I have always felt that Dan, through his music, has helped me to work out a lot of things surrounding my life. I will always be grateful for that. I only wish I were able to tell Dan that. I am sure he knows it, and also knows how much he meant to his family, friends, and adoring fans. Thanks Dan, for all the good things in life. God bless you. You will be truly missed. Missing you ~ Lia Aiello

To Jean and the Fogelberg family: I am so very saddened by the death of your most beloved Dan. His music was the very definition of my time in college and it surrounded me during the very first time I fell in love – I can never hear his music without thinking of that wonderful young man and my happy years in college. The memory brings tears to my eyes now as I think of it, but I hope it brings happiness to you to know what joy he brought to my life and the lives of many others through his music. My thoughts are with you and may you forever be bolstered by his love for all of you and your memories of him. He has inspired me to nag my husband to get his tests every year, the same as I get my mammograms!! Much love ~ Marian Hersh

Dear Jean... I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Dan. My wife and I were privileged to see Dan twice in the Milwaukee area. My wife passed away a little over a year ago around Christmas. She was 47 and died from cancer also. It takes a while to heal. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless ~ David

I was deeply saddened to hear about of Dan's passing. His wonderful voice will be remember always in my family. My thoughts are with his family in this sad time. ~ Jeff

Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.  Just last week, I put Dan's "Same Old Lang Syne" in my car and wept as I listened to the words.  May you find peace and comfort in this dark time.

I was saddened at the news that Dan left us. Jean, may you find strength and comfort during the difficult days to come. Our prayers and thoughts are with you. Dan is so loved and admired. We have lost a wonderful presence in the music community. God Bless.

It's an unusual feeling to have such profound sadness in my heart for someone I've never met personally, but have loved as an entertainer.  I will miss Dan.  I have loved his music for 35+ years.  To his family, I'm so sorry for your loss.  Peace be with all of you. ~ KJ

My heart is broken! He leaves behind a grieving multitude, but, He is at  peace. "No more sorrows, Got to carry on!" Carry on, Jean. Fans, it is up to us  to keep Dan's "legacy" alive. God Bless and keep you all. ~ CLE 

Dan & Jean, My thoughts and prayers on Dan's passing. May the loving, happy, and warm memories you and your loved ones have of Dan help you through this difficult time. A person is fortunate and blessed if they can touch lives and leave a legacy. Dan has done both with his songs. Dan will live forever in our hearts and in our minds through his wonderful music, lyrics, and songs. God Bless ~ Michael

Dan Fogelberg’s music made a huge impact on my life especially in the high school years and young adulthood.  I cannot express my sadness at his passing.  My prayer is for his family to find peace and for the younger generations to hear his music and appreciate his gift.  ~ Noelle, Independence, MO

I am so saddened to hear of Dan Fogelberg's passing.  I've loved his music for years and there are so many songs that bring back vivid memories of wonderful places and times in my life.  My life was made better because of him.  My true condolences to those who were close to him.  I pray for your healing. ~ Judy Andrew

His music touched my heart.  Sincerest sympathy- Brenda Hester

My prayers are with you today Dan. I thank GOD for the gift of your music and thankful that you shared it with us all. May You Rest In the Light Of GOD. ~ Al Berard

I hope it helps Jean and the rest of Dan's family, in some small way, to know there are millions of people in this world who share in the sadness following the loss of Dan.  The Lord bless you and keep you.  A fan to the end and beyond ~ RJB.

We will never forget Dan and his beautiful music which truly touched our lives. He was one of a kind and will always be missed. When I first learned of his illness on the website with his message to men to get that checkup, it motivated me to finally take action. Thank you Dan! ~ Rich & Kathy Hunt

Dan, rest in peace. I will never forget you and your music, which has inspired and accompanied me for over 30 years. You will always be in my heart! ~ Lorena, Lima, Peru.

Dear Dan, Thank you for your gift of music, your heart and soul showed in everything you did. Someday we will all meet again. You will never be forgotten, you were one of a kind. I am so grateful for your life. You were, and still are "The Leader Of The Band". My deepest condolences to your family. Love ~ janet walker

Dan, your words and music will always be 'among my souvenirs' from my life in music. May you rest in the peace of the Lord this day. ~ Brian

So saddened to hear of Dan's death from this world, his music has touched my life and will continue to.  I know he is on a different journey now and one filled with peace.  My thoughts and prayers to his family. ~ Patricia, Kentucky

God bless you Dan.  Your music was and always will remain meaningful. In your own way you have become the "Leader of the Band".  Thanks. ~ Ed H.

Today is the "Day the Music Died."   Dan was MUSIC to  me.   His music has been the soundtrack for my life for the last  thirty five years.   He inspired, lifted my spirits, consoled my  heart over loves lost, and gave me hope that I could love again after  divorce.  Dan was one of the most creative writers, and  he always touched my heart with his lyrics.   May his family be  comforted, and blessed through the kind words of so many who have left their  memories here.   Heaven is more special to us when we have an  investment there.   Dan, I look forward to seeing Heaven with you,  because I never had the chance to meet you here in person on  earth. God Speed. ~ Anita

Jean, As one who has been left behind as a result of cancer, I send my condolences to you.  Dan's music will forever bring back to me a time when I was younger and innocent, good memories.  When my husband turned forty a few years ago and got his lab slip for annual bloodwork, I CHECKED THE PSA BOX even though the doctor didn't order it.  We got a verbal thrashing afterward, but I don't regret it a bit.  It's not up to a doctor to decide if we want to screen, simply because the insurance may not pay for it or it's not "warranted".  I pay the insurance, I love my husband.  Done.  Thankfully, it was all good.  I'm sending our best wishes to you during this difficult time! ~ Jack and Susan Foreman

Goodbye, Dan. You and your family will be in my prayers. ~ Brian, Lawrence, Kansas

Dan Fogelberg's music made a huge impact on my life especially in the high school years.  I cannot express my sadness at his passing.  My prayer is for his family to find peace and for the younger generations to hear his music
and appreciate his gift.  ~ Noelle, Independence, MO

I came to work this morning and read the news about Dan passing on. I cried. I am a few years younger than him, 51, but I grew up with his music and it has always been a integral part of my life. My wife and I, just this past weekend, not even knowing the news, were actually remembering some of his songs we play and sing together. I remember we got stuck in the house in a snowstorm back in 1980. We had a six pack of beer, two frozen steaks and a Dan Fogelberg album. It was a great weekend. The Leader of the Band may have left this worldly earth, but his inspiration, emotional depth, kind soul, and most of all his music will always remain with us. Our most sincere condolences to Jean and the rest of his family. Sincerely ~ Robin and Billy Hoitt

My condolences to Dan's family.  Dan's memory will live on in his music for all of us.  Hopefully men will heed his message to get regular checkups. ~ Merle Simpson, Wichita, KS

When I was a young kid,  playing Dan's songs on my old Yamaha with my best friend filled with life and heart with joy.   30 years later, as a father and husband, I still am moved by those memories, beautiful music and intense lyrics that helped me through some very difficult times in my life.  Thank Dan Fogelberg, thank you for the wonder words and music....

The loss of Dan has left a huge break in my heart. Dan and his music have been a part of my life since my college days in the seventies. And now, just turning 50, I still listen, remember and renew my love of his songs. I send my deep felt sympathies to Jean and all that were close to him. And Thank You Dan for sharing your life and music with all of us. Rest In Peace. Most Sincerely ~ Jeff Gicking, Sugarloaf Pennsylvania

Heartbroken.........

My condolences to Jean and Dan Fogelberg's family.  I have been a fan of Dan Fogelberg since I was a teenager.  At that time I found a connection with his music.  Throughout the years I followed his career and continued to go to his concerts when he was in the New York area.  When my dad died in 1990 we had the song "Leader of the Band" played at his funeral.  May you all find peace through this time. ~ Mary B.

I was so saddened to learn of the passing of Dan Fogelberg.  His words and music were of the soul and he certainly touched mine.  I wish his spirit a continued peaceful journey through time. ~ Vicki Csakany

Dan was a true inspiration in my life. He was a great man with an amazing message. Thank you

I loved Dan from the moment I first heard the Souvenirs album years ago. Dan Fogelberg has been on my cd player, in my car, on my tee shirts, my video and is even my password. I've gone to sleep at night listening to his soothing voice singing his beautiful songs. He's in my heart and always will be. My prayer, and my heart, go out to Jean, and all of Dan's family. He will be missed. ~ Teresa

My husband Steve and I are such fans of Dan's music and more importantly the message. We grieve selfishly for our loss of any further sound from Dan but we grieve like many more for his family.  Another light has gone out. Rest in peace Dan, your memory lives on. With much appreciation for a gift to the world for so many years ~ Sharyn Fante-Hession, Stephen Hession

The song, "Longer" is my husband's and my song.  Dan's music was always so soothing and real.  We are so sorry to hear of his passing.  He will forever be remembered in our hearts.  Love ~ Carol & Tim

I grew up listening to Dan and his music will continue to influence me forever. My heartfelt condolences to his wife Jean and his family.

Dan Fogelberg your music, lyrics and concerts have been a very special euphoria for me in my life. "The Innocent Age" and all your lyrics have helped me to love, hate and understand the past.  Your lyrics have given me some wonderful inspiration and helped also with grasping the future and "rushing headlong through the crashing of the days".  I cannot thank you enough for the work you did and at times I reverted to your music for the strength to understand what passage life was going. The many times I saw your concerts I would leave with such fulfillment.  "And lead to his weary journeys end".  You will now follow the spirit trail. God Bless Dan Fogelberg and Wife Jean. ~
Gino Stranges, Niagara Falls Canada

I am shocked & saddened to hear the news this morning but his music  will live on in all of us. Oh how he touched me with it since I was 14 in the  1970's. I remember visiting Colorado then & wishing I would meet up with him  & we would live happily ever after:) I am still going to hold on to that dream when I am stressed!! ~ Patricia Mundy

Dear Jean and other Friends and Loved Ones of Dan, I was just devastated to learn of Dan's passing.  I have been praying  for him since I found out about his cancer diagnosis several years ago.  Dan has been such an inspiration to me for so much of my life.  He was  truly a kindred spirit and his music saw me through a lot of tough times in my  life.  Dan's music was also a part of the joyous times of my life,  including my wedding, 22 years ago.  His version of "Since You Asked" was my  wedding song. Although I never met Dan, I always felt, as so many of his fans  apparently did, that I had known him all my life. And I know, by the empty place  I feel in my heart right now, that life will never be quite the same without  him.  Although his music will live on, his presence in the  world will be sorely missed. My love and prayers to all who loved him. I grieve with you. ~ Tina, Oradell, NJ

Like so many others, the happiest years of my youth were accompanied by Dan's silky harmonies.  No music makes me more nostalgic.  Today I've retrieved my favorite cassettes , Captured Angel and The Innocent Age, from
a shoebox in the closet and playing them, reliving times I haven't visited in years.  I believe that Dan is basking in the love of those who've been waiting for his arrival.  I wonder if he has any awareness, in that dimension, of this sudden cacophony of songs being played here on earth in his memory.  If so, it must be thunderous. ~  Dee Sharp

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to friends and family.  Personally, I feel that "Same Old Lang Syne" is/was one of the greatest lyrical songs/story songs ever written.  The song evokes a sad but wonderful feeling every time I listen to it.  I will remember him for this and his many other fine songs.  Rest in peace, Dan, your song will forever be a major piece of my musical tapestry. ~ Micah Price, Uniondale, PA

"I sing to your spirit, Where all my dreams dwell. The vision, the freedom. The life lived so well. And I sing in your canyons and the echoes ring clear. And I wish somehow you may still hear".

As a singer/songwriter myself, Dan has been the single greatest influence in my career.  For the gift of his music, and "the life lived so well", he will remain forever in my songs. ~ Joe

As so many others have noted, Dan Fogelberg's music and passion have been part of my life for as long as I can remember.  So many memories - in 1981 driving from St Louis to Chicago to see Dan in concert, many future concerts spent at the backstage door hoping for a glimpse or an autograph..the seminal experience of going into labor with my 16 year-old daughter immediately at the end of his concert at Merriweather Post Pavillion in Baltimore.  The quality of our lives will have dimmed now that the hope of new musical expression is forever silenced.  My thoughts and prayers to Jean and the family.  Know and take comfort in the multitudes of people whom Dan's words and music have touched.  ~ Susan Topel, Baltimore, MD

The world will not be the same without Dan. He could reach my soul with a song better than anyone else ever could or will.  "The Reach" never failed to make me sing along and wish I was on the water, even when I am down.  His talent and soul will be missed forever.  ~ Rodney Johnson, Lansing, Michigan

My heart is broken. Thanks you for all of the joy and inspiration you have given my throughout my life. ~Cathy

I was crushed to hear this news.  Dan was such a gifted talent. He will be missed but his music will live on in us all.
That's the one thing a musician leaves behind that is a comfort to the bereaved. ~ Kenna Adams Pitts

To Mrs. Fogelberg, I am sure you know how lucky you were to  have met and fallen in love with him...and he the same.  I know you must be  suffering terribly right now, and you both fought very hard to beat this  cancer. I wish you peace in your heart--to know he no longer  suffers.  I wish you all happy memories of him.  Death cannot take  those from you.  They are yours to keep and hold dear. I'm glad he is no longer suffering.  I am very sad that  he has left this earth.  I thank God for the lyrics and music I can still  enjoy. Rest in Peace, DF. 

I am saddened by the news.  Dan Fogelberg's music was the soundtrack to my romance with my husband over 20 years ago. At the time, it was the only music we could agree upon. Although I recognize his music is not the secret to our success, I do believe the honesty of emotions in the lyrics somehow imbued our relationship at its' tentative beginning. Over the years our musical tastes have grown together, but nothing has the power to make us feel 18 and in love again like those songs. Truly, madly, deeply.

Dan...Your vibe lives on and will continue to enrich us...thanks for all the joy.

I just want to add my sincere sympathy to his family. I can't even calculate how many hours I spent in my youth listening to him and was always blown away by his incredible talent. God gave him one of the purest voices I have ever heard, and now today, he is using that pure, undamaged voice once again. RIP Dan. You will be forever missed. ~ Molly Gerwe, Oro Valley, AZ

I am so sorry to hear that Dan has passed away. I first met Dan at a kitchen store. He was planning a birthday party for his wife. He was so excited and so in love. He will truly be missed. Mrs. Fogelberg, our prayers are with you.

Dear Jean, I have just read about Dan's death this morning on the internet.  I  can't tell you how this has saddened me.  In fact, just this past weekend  while shopping with my husband, I picked up one of Dan's cd's for MY Christmas  stocking!!  I have been a huge fan of Dan's ever since the 70's and have  many of his albums.  His music has always touched and inspired me. I know  every word to each of his songs and can relate them to different aspects of my  life.  I did not know that Dan had been sick and my heart goes out to  you.  Just wanted you to know how much his music has meant to me for the  last 37 years.  I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. ~ Cindy Phelps, Louisburg, NC

From when you lived in Nederland to now, you voiced our lives and loves.

My deepest condolences to Dan's family. Dan's music influenced my life in so many ways I can't even tell you. He will always be a huge party of it. Even though I never knew him personally, I feel like I did. Peace to you all.

It would appear that it all has already been expressed-- the deep and wide impact Dan and his music had on so many people. I am one day and one year older than Dan -- and a bit more fortunate when my prostate cancer was caught earlier in the process.  Still way too young for us both. I too love Maine -- and it fitting that he passed away in that great State. His music will feed my soul for as long as I live - thanks, Daniel, for all the joy and meaning you brought to us all. ~ Dave D in Austin, Texas

Dearest Jean, Family, Friends and Fans, I am deeply saddened to hear that Dan lost his battle with cancer. He was a truly remarkable man, singer and songwriter. He will be missed by so many, but his legacy will live on. He was the leader of the band. To his family and friends, may you find the peace and comfort you will need to carry on, as he would want you to. With Love and Deepest Sympathy ~ Lorrie Swedenburg

Dear Jean and Family, I am so sorry for your loss.  Words cannot explain the sense of loss we as fans feel.  Dan has been my favorite artist, musician for 30  years, and I so looked forward to him returning to tour and make more of that heartfelt music once again.  I will always treasure him music as I'm sure we all will. He has left us the gift of his music, and for that, I am forever grateful. Forever a Fan ~ Deb

I have grown with his music from a teenager to a mother now 50 years old. There will never be another musician who touches all aspects of life with such grace, his music will live on in each of us daily. Dan you will be missed but the suffering is over and you are truly free now! "Home Free"! "To The Morning" helped me to rise everyday and start with a fresh heart, peace be with you Dan. Jean, thank you for being at his side and providing such loving care for the man who cared for a country for many years! Our world is a better place because of him! It will be much darker now, his music will resurrect the light. God Bless. Love ~ Tammy Billings Vinson

I cannot find the words to express my sorrow after hearing of Dan's passing. His music has meant so much to me over the past 30 years and I feel that I have lost a part of myself.  My deepest condolences to Jean and all of Dan's
friends and family.  May God bless Dan Fogelberg. Sincerely ~ Tammy H. in Belleville, Illinois

It's funny the things we remember...the little video clips in our brains that remain vivid. Durango, Colorado - 1975. I was 18 and pulled "Home Free" from the album racks...then "Souvenirs". And there stood a young girl who had just fallen in love. Dan...God gave you powerful gifts and you used them well. Thank you.
