    Annie did a tremendous job of speaking about John and his songs. You can feel her connection to him still. The sanctuary is such a loving tribute from his Colorado neighbors.

    It was a real privilege to be part of the group planting the first trees in the sanctuary back in August 1998. It landed me in the hospital with altitude sickness, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

    I wasn't his biggest fan even though I met his parents when I was 12yrs old in Aspen. But I do miss him whenever I hear a song he wrote, what a talent. I missed meeting him but I met his his parents and they said he laughed when he heard that I was scared of the giant bee's in his yard. LOL... now I laugh too because they weren't really Bee's at all but hummingbirds.. At least I brought some laughter or joy into his heart as he all of us with his music and songwriting. I wished I could have met him then, wow what a story that would have been to tell my son... Peace and we all know and pray he's in paradise. 🙏.. Rocky Mountain high in Colorado was awesome... and Sunshine on my shoulders (in Florida) gives me sunburn... LOL... Miss you John...

    I was there for the original dedication in October of 2000, and helped plant some trees and seed grass. I was there again in 2002, but haven't been back since, but I'd love to see it now with the expansion. I have photos from that 2000 ceremony and Annie has hardly changed one bit. She's a class act. Thank you for sharing this.

      She said in an interview after his death that over the years they had conversations about their life together and they believed that if they had been more mature they could have worked things out. They were only in their mid 30's when they divorced which is so young to have gone through the success and pressure of John's career. There is no doubt there was an enduring love between them.
