Wow, Pegi Young has passed away. Five days ago, it looks like, and I just found out. I’m a long time Neil Young freak, and I was surprised at how personally I took their split. Seems like an extra slap in the face that she passed away with so little news. RIP, I hope you’ve found peace.

Oh, crap.

She got Broken Arrow Ranch in the divorce. I doubt Neil’s going to inherit it. Perhaps a trust thing for the kids would be nice.
