This is an awesome tribute to all the great stars. It's also gret with the tribute to “The King of Pops.” I really like the flow of the words and the message. Michael has really contributed a lot to the world of music and dancing. Great job! ~Joseph

Hey John, That was good. It was fun to read and had an unexpected end. I looked at the title afterward. Those names brought so many images to mind. It was a quick remienise. I'm glad you're back where you belong. I hope you enjoyed >>> way down south!!! Keep writing, friend. Lovingly, Dane Ann

We do have a lot to be thankful for, John. You mentioned some of my favorite personalities above, including Clint Eastwood and Alfred Hitchcock. Very nice tribute to all, including the special One. Love, Carolyn

A pantheon of persona that taught us life is not what it seem ... and that our true inheritance is beyond the dream. Thank you too. One love
