Dan Fogelberg

I also wanted to find out how he was doing and this is the best I could find: In May 2004, he was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. On August 13, 2005, his 54th birthday, Fogelberg announced on his web site that through his first year of treatments they had succeeded in slowing the progression of his prostate cancer. In that same announcement, he thanked his many fans for their support, and noted that he had no immediate plans to return to making music, but was keeping his options open, and was enjoying spending time with his wife, musician Jean Fogelberg. In June 2005, it was reported that Fogelberg, who, since 1982, lived on Mountain Bird Ranch, 610 acres near Pagosa Springs, Colorado, has put the lavishly appointed property up for sale at an asking price of US$17.5 million. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Fogelberg THIS I HAD TO ADD! A personal letter from D.F. I cannot adequately express my gratitude to all of the thousands of wonderful people who have sent such incredibly moving and supportive e-mails via the Living Legacy web site. It is truly overwhelming and humbling to realize how many lives my music has touched so deeply all these years. Each one of you who have taken the time and effort to reach out to Jean and I have helped immeasurably to uplift our spirits and keep us looking strongly forward during some very rough moments. I thank you from the very depths of my heart. I currently have no plans to return to the concert stage or the recording studio in the foreseeable future, but who knows? At least for now, I prefer to keep my options open. Again my deepest thanks and love to all, Dan http://www.danfogelberg.com/news.html

The last report I have seen about him was October 2005. I have not been able to find anything more recently dated. It said at that date that he continued to struggle with it.

I remember him, he's a great singer and I admire his voice so much. I love songs his song, Longer, and I still can't believe that he suffered from that desease. As of now, I took time to visit his site website. And I believe his still okay, as he encourages every man over 50 years of age, to take test on prostate cancer to be more aware of their health.
