Levon Helm....

A couple of weeks ago Levon Helm died, and I think he took part of my adolescence with him.

I was introduced to the Band via Bob Dylan, and I came to love a great many of their songs (both together and apart).  Levon's voice has a unique place in my memory....I love his singing in "When I Paint My Masterpiece".

Dear Mr. Helm,

Thank you very much for sharing all the great music you and your friends created.  Your music has served as bookmarks for many key markers in my life.  I will miss having your around.

Best wishes,
Byron
