| 1997: Brian and I were playing and singing John
Denver's song "Country Roads" just recently....while we celebrated Bri's 25th
birthday....we talked of John Denver and the awful loss. Brian and I had seen John in
concert several years ago...it was one of our Mother Son outtings....and when we got ready
to leave I had to use the restroom, Brian having explored the intire Balcony area showed
me to one he had found way in the back, out of the way from the crowded ones out
front...it was also next to an elevator which we decided to take to save time, however
once in it we realized we were in a special elevator which only went one place...down to
the back stage area....where the doors opened and there standing not 10 feet away was John
Denver himself.....Brian wanted to move toward him and say hello, which he could have
done, I on the other hand was awe struck and couldn't move, couldn't speak, couldn't
anything. I just stood there I'm sure with my mouth hanging open looking quite like a cod
fish until the elevator doors closed on their own and we moved back upward.....Brian was
shocked I didn't have enough whatever it took to say hello and so was I but I was just
absolutely surprised by what had happened and don't really know how it had happened but it
had. Oh well....too late now....but we sing his songs and play his music and think kind
loving thoughts of him still and always. |

Brian are becoming parents, they are adopting a baby and that baby is due
