    I'll make you so sure about it
    God only knows what I'd be without you”

    He has passed away from cancer. I was unaware of his trouble with the law and jail time. Seems he made amends as best he could. His legacy is only slightly lessened in my opinion.

  19. You often read that you should never meet your heroes. Well, I don't agree. Peter Yarrow was one of the kindest people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Rest in power, Mighty Dragon, and may your memory forever be a blessing.

  21. CW: Peter Yarrow death, references to CSA

    Peter Yarrow, singer with folk legends Peter Paul & Mary and co-writer of "Puff the Magic Dragon," has died of cancer at age 86. @RollingStone looks at his career including his early years on the folk scene, his contribution to the peace movement, and his conviction for taking “immoral and improper liberties” with a 14-year-old, which he later said was during "an era of real indiscretion and mistakes by categorically male performers." A decade after this, he was pardoned by Jimmy Carter — Yarrow said in his application that he sought this so he would be better able to explain the incident to his children. Additional allegations emerged decades later, @RollingStone reports.
