Ryan H Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Rest In Peace, Stompin' Tom Connors. Canada will never forget you. Passed away at 77 at his home. Service planned for March 13th at 7pm at the Memorial Centre in Peterborough, Ontario. Below is his final message to Canadians. "Hello friends, I want all my fans, past, present, or future, to know that without you, there would have not been any Stompin' Tom. It was a long hard bumpy road, but this great country kept me inspired with it's beauty, character, and spirit, driving me to keep marching on and devoted to sing about its people and places that make Canada the greatest country in the world. I must now pass the torch, to all of you, to help keep the Maple Leaf flying high, and be the Patriot Canada needs now and in the future. I humbly thank you all, one last time, for allowing me in your homes, I hope I continue to bring a little bit of cheer into your lives from the work I have done. Sincerely, Your Friend always, Stompin' Tom Connors" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
