I always liked her music. She was from a nice/ carefree era when I was a young boy and her music still brings back good memories for me. I was kind of shocked when I heard the news about her. May she rest in peace.

I had zero courage......I was a permanent wall flower, even when I was wearing a lettered HS jacket.

Yeah, big man on campus. I was such a douche bag!

Hey Mike S,

I was the only sophomore in the senior baseball varsity, playing turd base. But when it came time to

socialize even upon the invitations of a couple cheer leaders, I was more an expert as the campus

dork, never going out to parties or dates. I graduated as probably the only senior virgin on campus.

Cold feet looking for hot stuff -- Jake

Speaking of disco we also lost another Bee Gee brother , Robin Gibb , leaving only the oldest Barry still living . They were famous of course during that era especially after the Travolta movie . Both will be missed by us old timers .
