We are all a little weird
And life's a little weird,
And when we find someone whose
Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”

Wow! Another amazing talent is gone. We will have to have a Sherman Brothers film festival this week...including "The Boys". Sad, sad day for Disney fans (and non-Disney fans alike). :(
Prayers for his family and friends.

Since I cannot seem to get the streams to play through my computer today and I am at the mercy of the request stream via my phone, the passing of Mr. Sherman is the inspiration for my requests today.

That is a very nice tribute ~ also, did you notice rdeacon put together a Bob Sherman tribute on the scheduled stream in honor of his passing. There are still shows at 2, 5:30 and 9:30 yet. I'm hoping to catch some during my commutes this afternoon.

Yes, and I would like to listen to it, but the only stream I can get right now is requests...

I saw this on Facebook as well and it's sad to hear but I'm very thankful for all the things he contributed to Disney.

Bummer. I had F1gment's car today so I didn't have my charger so I didn't listen either. Running the music sucks my iphone dry quite quickly :shock:

I heard about this a bit after it was announced. Such a great loss. :(

Thoughts and prayers to his loved ones.

He will be missed very much. Disney would not be Disney with the Sherman brothers.
