Jerry Garcia

Class,

Every once in a while I will recognize a music icon that has passed on. The first is Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead. Jerry died of a heart attack on August 9, 1995. Dead Heads around the world will forever miss him.

"If some part of that music is heard in deepest dream, or on some breeze of summer, a snatch of golden theme, we'll know you live inside us, with love that never parts; our good ol' Jack O' Diamonds become the King of Hearts."
-Robert Hunter

Please sit back and listen to the ballad "So Many Roads" by the Dead. This is my favorite Dead song of all time:





In the words of the Grateful Dead, "We Will Survive."

Forever Dead,

Prof. Mike
