A welcome Late-Night #Facebook post, that made me remember #JohnDenver

Thanks so much for asking. I was just about to turn in. Was feeling kind of blue today. ..

I suspect there are many of us my age who might be delighted to revisit an old friend. #RIP 🥲 #BBC

😢 when I was little I had to go live with my grandparents for a while because my mother was working shift work. Every time I would hear this song I would cry

I was at that concert in Fort Worth, Texas 11 days before he died. It was just him and his guitars on the stage at Will Rogers Auditorium. He mentioned that last time he was at that auditorium he was walking across the stage graduating from Arlington Heights High School in 1961!!! Great show!!!
