In reply to the discussion: John Prine has died [View all]SergeStorms
(19,204 posts)86. Oh no.
The last time I knew he was getting slightly better. Another one of my musical heroes moves on. Damn it! John's music filled my life with so many great songs. He features greatly on the sound track of my life. It's going to take some time for this one to stop hurting. My most sincere condolences to Fiona and the boys.
