11. One of my heroes.

A really sad day for folk music. He was singing and inspiring us all the way to the end:

12. He was called a Red, a trouble-maker, un-American. We need more like him.

13. RIP, you great man.

I once read a mother's prayer for a newborn son, that when he died, his community would be glad he had lived.

Pete Seeger's music has spread to nooks and crannies of this earth we've never even heard of, but especially it lives here, in the country he lived in and among the people whose struggles he gave brilliant voice to.

We are so glad he lived.

14. Pete Seeger, Phil Ochs, Harry Chapin. . .the trio of humanity!

Good night, Pete. And you thank you.

15. RIP Mr. Seeger

I just saw this report and I'm dreading calling my mother with this news once the hour becomes decent. My love for folk music and their message came straight from my parents.

16. A great soul, an inspirational everyman, he lives on through all who love each other.

Thank you Pete Seger for all you have done: for minions with hammers, bells and songs all over this land.
