        I’m sorry to read this. These musicians like Prince and Tom Petty and others who work so hard, ultimately pay the price. Slow down and enjoy life. They certainly earned it. 2 of my favorites gone and it still hurts. 😰

        We could have done without Tom for a few months in order for him to get well. But you have to admire his drive to satisfy the fans that help put him where he was at. Unfortunately, it cost him some time; however, he did what he wanted to do. RIP Tom Petty.

        That's a lot of drugs. Sadly, he was basically a junkie. Sadly.
