I am so sad not to have gone to this. But I love the lyrics chosen to represent his life's work. One from his early career, one from mid-career, and one from later career, all beautiful and poignant. And using the lyrics to "Ever On" to line the pathway to the memorial is wonderful! I look forward to one day visiting.

I've been pretty bummed about missing it too, Mary. I keep trying to convince myself that it's alright, I'll get over it. I'm trying to accept that it just wasn't meant to be...there's a reason for everything, etc. But I can't help feeling like I blew it...and missed the chance of a lifetime.

Still, I'm thrilled that it turned out to be such an amazing and wonderful celebration of Dan's life. From what I've seen and heard, the weekend far exceeded expectations. And that is awesome.

And I so agree with you about the lyrics. They couldn't be more perfect. The river setting is beautiful, and I hope to get there someday too. I gotta hand it to the Peoria folks....they did an incredible job of honoring Dan.
