John Prine, singer, songwriter, legend - Dead at 73 from COVID-19
What a tremendous loss. I had just read that he was ill last week and spent reminiscing with a friend about some of his best songs. What a great song writer with such entertainment value in his lyrics. He leaves a treasure chest of happy memories ...
