I was a quiet and shy girl in school, I did my work, I had friends, but I wasn't like the other kids, Than in 1979 I was 16 years old when I bought my 1st Prince LP, I fell in love with his music, I listen to it every day, I couldn't wait until his next LP came out, When I turned 21 years old, I used to take my Prince LP's with me to the night clubs, and the DJs would play Prince's music for me, I would dance all night. I was so proud to of introduce Prince's music to Lake Station and Portage Indiana in 1982.
I got to see Prince in concert 3 times in my life. What a Blessing it was.
I've taught my grandaughter Anna how to dance last year she was 2 years old, and she loves Prince's song This could be us. Anna loves to dance, I was 54 years old when Prince died , I was devastated.
When I turned 55 years old, I didn't want to celebrate my birthday. So I decided to get a tribute to Prince Tattoo, I designed a butterfly, one wing has a dove cries, and the other wing has the symbol for Prince.
I truly appreciate Prince's music in my life, and being able to share his music with my grandaughter Anna who is 3 1/2 years old now.
When I watch prince's music videos, my grandaughter will ask me "granny, are you sad?, do you miss Prince?" I smile at Anna, and say " yes I'm sad but I'm blessed to of had prince in my life."
I truly feel an empty place in my heart that only Princ's music can fill. I wouldn't be who I am today, if it wasn't for Prince. God bless ????
