"I just now heard about Levon's passing and it is so upsetting. I am such a HUGE fan of The Band and he certainly was, as they all were, instrumental in everything they did. I think he just played locally recently and I was unable to go. Now I am so regretting it. God Rest His Soul. He's in peace and with many many of his old friends. RIP"

"May his family, friends, & fans be comforted by all the special songs he has shared with us during the precious little time he was here. He had the voice of an angel whom will be missed by so...many of us. I want to give a special thank you to his family for allowing us to have the honor of having him share of himself. He will be greatly missed. Peace & love to all who loved him."
