    This is happening so much now, at least it feels like this to me. Famous, significant people from my past, who I and my friends enjoyed and learned from, keep leaving. I feel like sometime soon, I'm going to happen to glance down at my feet, and discover that my shoes, socks and feet, are missing. I don't dare look away, though, or else more of me may become erased.
    That's how important these people were to many of us, at least within my band of friends, and my friends in bands;-)

    Peter, Paul & Mary were an important part of my teenage years. (Along with many other bands or groups.)

    I was a little kid when they were popular in the '60s, but my oldest brother had many of their albums. I enjoyed hearing their music.

    Mr. Yarrow's music was a style that I simultaneously was familiar with as a soundtrack to the 60's and not familiar with.  It was interesting to see that his passing coincided with the passing of Jimmy Carter who commuted his sentence.
