What can I say? He was worth waiting for and is my true soulmate. The bravest man I know. And most importantly he can sing.

I've had a bit of turmoil in my life lately, and I read your tribute a few days late. I teared up a bit with your beautiful words. Wichita Lineman has been on my Spotify favorites for quite awhile and now that line will mean even more. Thank you for stopping to see the beauty in your life even though there was deep tragedy. It is a good lesson for all of us. Thank you Andy💕

Poignant and ultra-personal revelations.

The photos and music clip add emphasis to your remarks, Andy. Well done.

Happy Birthday, Barbara (who in her spare time is the chair of the Commonwealth of Virginia Arts Commission)

Your friends, Jim & Julie Roberts
