Hard to believe it was 31 years ago that the world was shocked that John Lennon had been shot to death. I remember that night vividly--I was about to sign on for my shift at KFXD here in Boise, Idaho when the news came. Before starting my shift, I always tried to check the UPI wire for timely material. Only that night, the old teletype was sputtering and bells were going off and then came the tragic news. We immediately stopped normal programming and began playing Beatles and John Lennon music.
They always get the good people. He was a visionary, an idealist, who was a position where he could do a lot of good for the world and he did. He left us with so many great memories and was one of the great ones of the 20th century. We love you John, we love what you stood for, we so loved the Beatles and your lifetime of work.
31 years later, we still Imagine all the people living in peace. And you're not the only one.
