John Denver
- Share via
My daughter Christine and I had tickets to a John Denver concert at the Forum in 1978.
Imagine her heartbreak when she was stricken with a critical illness and had to go to the hospital instead. I sent a message to him and told him of her plight.
The next day, bless his heart, he phoned the ICU ward and definitely cheered her up. He sang, they chatted and laughed and it was one of the happiest moments of her short life. He did this without publicity, showing what a truly caring and decent person he was.
