Unless you knew Jesus as your savior, you're not with him now and I hope that is not the case. But wherever you may be, in peace or in torment, we loved you!

Did you also know that the plane that did crash was offered to Aerosmith before Skynyrd, and they refused it as being not safe (A friend of a manger or something was a pilot who checked the plane out)
