IN REMEMBRANCE--2020 AD

Oh no not The Gambler himself, Kenny Rogers You still walk the fertile fields of my mind. The faded shirt, the weathered brow. The calloused hands upon the plow. I loved you then and I loved now

- my fathers favourite singer so I grew up with Dad singing all of his songs

I would've bet my bottom dollar, (honestly no pun intended), that your post or the very next after announcing his death would've been "got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em"; I was shocked it wasn't. My mother was a big fan too when I was growing up. Theres been many a drunken night around here when the Gambler or the Coward of the County made an appearance on the radio. I never knew this until just now but he didn't even write the Gambler, huh, learn something new everyday. Oddly some of his really early work was semi-psychedelic, with the First Edition.
