A true Canadian legend. Farewell sir. You'll never be forgotten.
“The only BAD thing about a Gordon Lightfoot song is that it ends.”
-Bob Dylan
He was especially part of our summer driving out east. We loved playing his music as we drove east to the sea to New Brunswick and Grand Manan Island ... Tracy, Angela and me...
Thanks Gordon for the music.💗
You could say he lived a full long life but it's so sad. His songs are timeless and we will always have that. Rest in peace Mr. Lightfoot and thank you for sharing your gift.
He will always live in my heart especially in the fall for salmon fishing and deer hunting. His voice was magical and helped me to realize it was time to engage in my life to do better and drove me to do better and accomplish my goals. A real soul mate of sorts that made me feel comfortable in my skin in this unpredictable life of disappointments and guided me to center my thoughts to do my best. Yhankyou Gordon Lightfoot. You will live on as your music guides my soul yo live on to do my best, thankyou and forever...🎉❤
A true iconic Legend
Condolences to your family and friends. Rest in peace. Thank you for the music.
Love you Gordon, play on where ever you are.
As I was listening to his song "Rich Man's Spiritual" today, the lyrics just pierced my heart and made me cry. The lyrics are so meaningful today, the day his family laid him to rest. May the smilin' angel indeed lead you home with your two wings of silver. Rest in peace, Gordon.
I had to listen, as it’s been a long time I have heard this song. Now as with you, it’s for real. Listening to him sing, was emotional.
You Conveyed a very touching tribute, to Gordon.
✨✝️🕊✨
my sincere condolences to gordon Lightfoots family and band mates and crew who worked with him also.
Farewell Gordon. Never forgotten.
Not one bad song. Not one.❤️
I seen him back in the 70's @ Six Flags Over Mid-America STL He was such an awesome guy! Your music will live on! "May The Perpetual Light Shine Upon Him" 🙏
Thanks to the family of Gordon. He got me through 4 years 1973-1977 in the United States Marine Corps. I was really missing my girlfriend.
Now he will meet the twenty-nine men of the Edmund Fitzgerald
Thankyou Gordon for the story of my life.
One of the best ever i will miss forever
Im from outside Cleveland Ohio and learned how to play the 6 string and 12 string guitars from most of the songs on Summertime Dream album
I have family in Canada, I went to that lake in Aurelia when I was younger.
He was arguably the National folk singer of Canada! Any one of Gordon Lightfoot’s classic songs would’ve come in handy for a Guardians of the Galaxy movie!
The fact that it started raining on his visitation day is pretty special considering that one of his best known songs is ‘Early Morning Rain.’
Also, Looking At The Rain.
Gordon should have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame years ago.
Gordon Lightfoot 🇨🇦❤

Amazed his coffin hasn't been speculated on and turned into an airbnb yet.
R.I.P. A Canadian Iconic !
💔😢
The captions for this video are shockingly bad. If I hadn't been able to hear the dialogue, I would be lost. Too many mistakes.
I miss you Gordy
He was the best! I'll see you in the blink of an eye!
I thought he was from Nova Scotia!!!
What is the nameof the Church?
