I remember the events of December 8, 1980 too well. For a few weeks I had been having nightmares so I wasn’t sleeping too well. The night of December 8th I kept getting a premonition type feeling about something bad about to happen so I called a friend to talk about it. I had no idea what was going to happen to John but it was a very nerve wracking experience. Especially having uneasy feelings that something was going to happen but not sure when or to whom. I couldn’t sleep at all that night so I stayed up and audio-taped albums for a friend. I fell asleep finally about 5:00 am and got up about 10:30 am and started my day. I had no idea John had been killed and wouldn’t know until I watched CBS news that night (December 9) When I heard that John had been killed, it hit me like a ton of bricks. It felt like I’d lost a member of my family. For a long time I couldn’t listen to John’s music because it was too painful. It took a couple of years before I finally could listen. Now I feel it is important to celebrate his life. John would want us to focus on life. John made quite an impact and will forever be missed. He has a special place in my heart. Now & forever.
