I have never met Rod, and never heard his music, but I was overwhelmed by the feel of pain and loss because of his tragic death. Usually in the announcements we hear of artists creating, sharing their work. It is truly sad. My heart, thoughts and prayers go to all the ones that have known him, loved him or/and had such violent experience in their lives. May the GOD of peace indwell all our hearts as we mourn this life.
