    Thank You For A Memorable Night In Charleston
    Larry Barnette says (15 Jan '13)

    Dear Kid,
    I got divorced 3 years ago then 2 years ago in October my high school sweetheart and I found each other on facebook and picked up where we left off.She moved in with me and my son and daughter on Christmas Day 2010.I knew she was a huge fan of yours so I looked for tickets to your show here in our hometown of Greenville,SC but they were sold out.I managed to get 2 tickets to your show in Charleston so I drove us down there that night for her birthday.You put on such an amazing show and we were both in absolute awe we loved it so much.She was glowing with happiness!! On our way home she said"Larry if I ever had any doubt whether im in love with you or not its gone after tonight.Thank you for this, I love you so much baby!!" We got married in june 2012 and we had your music playing on the way to our honeymoon.I went to wake my wife up New Years Day morning and she had no pulse or respiration.I called EMS and they got her to the hospital but she passed away at 11pm that night even on life support.She passed the day before our 7 month weding anniversary.I have so many wonderful memories of my wife but besides our wedding day the best memory I have is the concert you put on that night and how happy you made her seeing you live and in person.That is a memory I will always cherish forever!! Thank you Kid and God Bless you!! You gave us both an eternally beautiful evening that will never be forgotten!!! Your Friends and Fans Forever!

Larry, I can truly relate to your story and how Kid Rock's music is like a centerpiece with my husbands and my loving relationship - Cherishable and Timeless. Your story is beautiful.. and I'm so terribly sorry for your loss. May God bless you, and may your wife be dancing with the other angels to Kid Rock's music up in heaven.
