Pete Seeger 1919-2014

Thank you for all the years of listening to your music.

Thank you for
Where have all the flowers gone
Turn, turn, turn
If I had a hammer
The Weavers
Every song you wrote
Every song you sang

Less thanks for "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" because my brother played it over and over and over and over in 1962 until I thought I would go crazy...but the French version "Le lion est mort ce soir" by Pow Wow made me appreciate it again.

Thanks for standing up for what you believed.

Thank you for fighting for clean water.

Thank you for being an ethical model.

Thank you for believing the world could be better than it was.

Thank you for being.
