That's quite a young age to die. What did he died of?

He died of cancer. he actually lost his eyes to a cancer sickness when he was 1. His whole life he has been dealing with cancer.

  LOL, anyone remember the movie Roadhouse from the late 80s with Patrick Swayze? Jeff Healey was the house band at the bar in that movie and had a small acting role as Patrick's long lost buddy. Cheeeesy movie, but he played some good music in it.

  Probably not only one of the best Canadian guitarist, but one of the world's best. Rock, jazz, blues, ...he did it all.

I've never seen Roadhouse.  I see it in the $5 bargain bin all the time, though.

Oh I thought every gal that grew up in the 80s would have loved that show, guys too. Guys for the fights, bar brawls etc. Ladies for the "Patrick Swayze with his shirt off and gleaming muscles doing Thai Chai (sp?) out in the sun".

  Jeff Healey had to play behind a cage in the bar because the bar was so rowdy.


Very silly movie! haha!

  [FONT size=2]Girl, you're lookin' fine tonight
And every guy has got you in his sight
What you're doin' with a clown like me
Is surely one of life's little mysteries

(Chorus)
So tonight I'll ask the stars above:
How did I ever win your love?
What did I do; What did I say
To turn your angel eyes my way?

Well, I'm the guy who never learned to dance
Never even got one second glance
Across the crowded room was close enough
I could look but I could never touch

(Chorus)

Don't anyone wake me if it's just a dream
'Cuz she's the best thing that ever happened to me
All you fellows, you can look all you like
But this girl you see, she's leaving here
With me tonight

There's just one more thing I need to know
If this is love, why does it scare me so?
Must be something only you can see
'Cuz girl, I feel it when you look at me[/FONT]

That's such a lovely song to be your wedding song, PC.  Whenever I hear it, I just melt inside.  So touching. :)

P.C.

Me too purelife.  I melted then and I still melt now.
