WOW! Ingrid, as I read this letter every word, every thought, every memory came though with so much "love" and sincerity from this fan.(I wish I knew her 1st name at least, 'cause the word fan seems so impersonal)). She remembered every detail in her letter and literally grew up with Jim! I was blown away by her words and feelings and the way she expressed herself. (I loved her southern drawl throughout her writing; such an authentic woman!) The letter was so beautifully written and so heartfelt!

Thank you so much for sharing this with me. Jim would be so proud of the people his music touched. Now, with yours and Jimmy's new book, I Got a Name: The Jim Croce Story, his legacy and music will keep what he loved doing alive and people will get to know the good times and difficult times of your lives; the real people and stories behind the songs. I’ll be front row and center at your book signing!
