Very nice tribute Sumer ♥

[1leilamcdanielmuto]

my dad died the same way and he played the violin so they are probably playing with my Grandpa right now and my uncle on the mandolyn so they got the band along with other musicians.

I am humbled by the awesome response to my video. And I thank each and every one of you. My father was a wonderful man, who only loved music straight from his soul. And I was priveleged to have him as my father. Again, thank you all.

@Sumer61 I believe the thanks should go to you thanks

[redrock58]

redrock58 Such a meaningful tribute to your father. It sure is nice to know, that there are children who still thinks the world of their parents after they have passed "like you do" my heart goes out to you. Once again very touching and, a very very appropriate song!.

Beautiful.  You brought tears to my eyes... and i'm sorry your father is gone.

[babydoll1955]

your tribute to your dad was so touching. so often people die and think they didnt do anything great to change the world, not knowing the rich legacy they leave in the hearts of their children and thei childrens children. but one day you will see your dad in heaven again, guitar in hand

[wilily]

Did'nt expect to see somthing so touching when I searched for "Leader of the Band".Thank-You for sharing

[dfarney1971]

I live in Peoria, Illinois, which is where Dan Fogelberg was raised and where his mother still lives. He is truly a special artist and this song was obviously about his father who was the director of a high school band here in Peoria.

Very nice tribute and a very appropriate song.

[jkygogo]

Beautiful Tribute to your Father. It brought me to tears. I feel the same way about my Dad.
