Thread Name: Is kytrad okay? Jean Ritchie UPDATE 30 Jan.2010
Subject: RE: Is kytrad okay? Jean Ritchie hospitalized
Love and best wishes to Jean from England. She was the first 'proper' folk singer I ever heard - on BBC radio when I was a child. Not just a lovely voice but a sincere, kind and gentle person. I sent her a e-mail via her website ealier this year and was delighted to promptly receive a warm reply, where she recalled those BBC broadcasts. Our thoughts to Jean and her family.
