Sept 1, 2023, is the music died for me. James William Buffett passed (aka) Jimmy Buffett passed away at the age of 76. For most of my adult life, his music was the soundtrack. My wife, my children, even my grandchildren know how much his music meant to me.
l never had the chance to see him perform in person, but his music touched every part of my life. Once my daughter asked me if my life was a TV show what would my theme song be , I said without hesitating, “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes.”
The line , ”if we couldn’t laugh, we’d all go insane!”, became pretty much my motto.
I know I will continue to listen to his music, but knowing there will be anymore new songs or stories saddens me.
I know there are probably millions of other fans feeling the same as I do, but we will care on and keep his memory and music alive.
Sail on Sailor.
