Re: READING,PA-May 29-2015
As a seventy three year old rabid Lightfoot fan these kind of write ups still tend to get me fired up and it's difficult to take sometimes but in reality I've come to accept they stem from both ignorance and arrogance.
It's clear this writer didn't do her homework as there was no mention of the serious illness that made headlines in Sept 2002 when Gord nearly lost his life due to his aneurysm. The fact that she left early due to a previous commitment indicates her lack of class (or maybe her employer's) when given the opportunity to cover an article about an international icon.
Gord used to get upset about unsavory writeup articles in the early years but at this stage he can pull them out of his hip pocket. He's not about to pack it in any time soon.
My best wish to the writer is that she lives a life of good health and when she reaches the age of 76 she will review this thread and the legend will live on from there.
