His school principal certainly said many good things about him. Del Shannon certainly was beloved in his hometown. It's sad that he didn't live to see this happen in his hometown. Not only a recording artist but a songwriter as well as a record producer. Del Shannon helped others to reach success as well.
The Charles Westover album is absolutely amazing! He deserved to be able to play those kinds of songs live throughout his career in addition to his early classics.
The horrible truth is that Charles was bullied! If only bullying could be curbed even today...it seems that the terrible happenings of his youth were the beginnings of his end...an impressive showing by this wonderful man who was his principal. It makes my heart glad that he and Charles became friends...💔
Bullied. The latest panacea for wimps that can't come up with good excuse for existing. Prozac more than likely was what set it off. I know it has others. His wife said he had recently started taking it.
I wish I was there, following Del since the sixty never will I stop listening to his song , saw Del in PA club he performing and we share a smile, he always was smiling great smile, I never will forget or will he be forgotten in my life time . RIP DEL.

An artist of lasting distinction. The Charles Westover album, the 60's stuff, and earlier songs like Two Silhouettes are inspirational.

That speech was a work of art, and proof that the "principal" had also excelled in his profesion!- Oh he loved that kid!!!
My mom always loved the song Runaway by Del Shannon It's a shame how he died, even though he sung his songs before my time. I'm only 47

I loved Del's music and singing. One of my 60's hero. Which state is Coppersville in?
