On the day after Christmas I left for Florida with my schools Marching band. I had a lot of fun that week even though I had a pink eye, stuffy nose and sore throat the whole week. When I got back home I immediately fell asleep in my room from the exhaustion. My mom woke me up to ask if I wanted to go to my cousins house for a new years eve party, I said no. My brother sam later came in my room and started bugging me. Are daily retual which he had missed for a week since I was gone. He let it slip about Jimmy Sullivans death. I thought he was joking, or that I wasn't hearing right. Within seconds I jumped from my bed and ran down the stairs to the computer, which is now on my lap. I searched around and found out that Jimmy Sullivan had died from an unknown cause on the 28th of December 2009. I let tears slip from my eyes. It was then my brother noticed that I was actually serious about Jimmy Sullivan being my role model and hero.
Jimmy Sullivan had an interview that I watched online today and he talked about how he was affected by his role model's death. I understood the feeling, it was the same I had for him. I wish that I could find a way for Jimmy Sullivan know that he really affected some peoples life. I wish that he never died. I hope that his music lives on for ever and that people don't forget him. People realize how special musicians are when they died. But I think I realized how special Jimmy Sullivan was before that because he and the whole band were different in a unique good amazing way.
I will miss you jimmy Sullivan and I will carry on your music the best I can.
