RIP, Dan Fogelberg

Started by Karoli · 1 year ago

I’ve said this before: Music is the mark of moments in my life. “Leader of the Band” was one of BD and my favorites when we were dating. Rest in peace, Dan Fogelberg. You fought that cancer long and hard and it’s time to rest. We’ll miss you.

    I had no idea he had been sick. What a shame. Strange, too - I had just been thinking about his music lately after hearing an interview on NPR with "Babyface" who just released an album with songs from some of my favorites and he has a Dan Fogelberg song on it. It made me think that I should download some of Fogelberg's music for old time sake. I was a big fan back then. I will do it today.

    Wow, this is sad. I discovered Dan Fogelberg through a friend in my first year of university, and have loved his music ever since (esp. "Longer") This is a loss indeed.

    The Leader of the Band has died. Prostate cancer took this young 56 year old singer/songwriter. It has been said that had it been caught earlier, Dan might have survived. As a prostate cancer survivor I was diagnosed at age 47 (quite by accident). Fogelberg's diagnosis happened when he was 52 and by then it was in advanced stages. As a professional speaker ( http://www.chuckgallagher.com ) I have the opportunity to speak to groups nation wide. While my presentations don't center around this disease, I use every opportunity available to encourage men to get checked early and often. A simple blood test done soon enough could mean the difference between life and death.

    Dan Fogelberg died yesterday, yeah, most people have heard the news. I was a fan of his, and I was sorry to hear of his recent passing away. Goodbye Dan Fogelberg, we will miss you...
