The world has lost an extraordinary voice and an exceptional human being. I've been a Peter, Paul and Mary fan since they began in the early 1960's and have seen them in concert a few times.

Since hearing of Mary's passing, one thing has been in my mind. I always watch their PBS specials. I can still see Mary sitting in a big, comfortable chair singing "For Baby For Bobbie" to her granddaughter who was snuggled up next to her. The unconditional love between them was a beautiful thing to see.

In my mind Peter, Paul and Mary will be remembered as icons of contemporary music. They appealed to all generations, the audience at their concerts spanned all age groups from the young to the old because they had so much to offer.

Rest in peace, Mary. While you will be missed by many, your voice and your music will continue to share your message and your beautiful voice. Thank you for countless hours of enjoyment and your extraordinary music
