NEW YORK (AP) — Dan Fogelberg, the singer and songwriter whose hits "Leader of the Band" and "Same Old Lang Syne" helped define the soft-rock era, died Sunday at his home in Maine after battling prostate cancer. He was 56.
Those of you who know me or have read my writings over the past couple of years will know how deeply saddened I am with this news.
As I mentioned just yesterday on my blog - Dan's Christmas music has become a tradition with me, and I had linked to a site to share some of it with you, my friends here! I had plans to play his Christmas cd tonight...and I will do that , still... but with tears!
I'm sorry I can't get my thoughts together so I will go for now.

Ohhhh... I'm sad too, Junie. I also love Dan Fogelberg, and I was afraid this was going to happen.
Thanks for coming by, Skye!
I will miss Dan more than I can say!
...hurts to know there will be no new music... although his music can live on through his fans!

I'm so sorry to read this. I hadn't heard this news. He had some beautiful recordings, my favorite being "Longer" and "A Love Like This".
MG,
Thanks for coming by.
Yes, DF gave us some very beautiful songs over the years. I will miss him greatly.
early detection is the key, every man should have a prostate PSA test. So sad.
Thanks for commenting here!
Yes- early detection is the key-
I urge all my family and friends to be tested!
