OH IF A MAN TRIED TO TAKE HIS TIME ON EARTH AND PROVE BEFORE HE DIED WHAT ONE MAN'S LIFE WOULD BE WORTH I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THIS WORLD......harry chapin
sunday marked the 25th anniversary of harry chapins death...a good dear friend called me from st.louis to inform me of that fact and i am forever grateful for that....you see harry was a inspiration to me in the way he conducted his life beyond music...he started long island cares and donated much of his money and time to feed the poor....he was headed for a free concert when he was killed on the long island expressway in a terrible car crash that has left us missing one of our own for a long time......it turns out that harry is buried in a local historic cemetery and my friend from st louis ...lee porter asked if i would go to the grave site and take a picture for him so he could put it up on a musical tribute site of a concert of harrys..i had a hard time finding the grave site but with some help i located it........however on the way to the cemetery as i was pulling in .....a harry chapin song came on the radio and i knew i was suppose to be there today........my friend bill michaels and i planted some flowers and paid our respect to a great humanitarian.....after harry's death i got to be friends with sandy his wife and i know that harry and i would have been friends had he taken his van that day instead of the volkswagon on that last ride on the LIE..............oh the choices we make....the above photo is of his tombstone and gravesite and it speaks for it's self................................fridays concert was as expected and more...a wonderful evening with casey and her new found friend dan......................... thanks to lonnie and marcia for saturdys bar-b-q and alan & donna for the event on sunday...... i love you guys...i am finally full ..............................keep on rockin
