I absolutely love this man! In the early 1990's when Bed of Roses was released my Mom who was in her early sixties, discovered Bon Jov! Which meant I was going along with her as a Bon Jovi fan! At some point she said she wanted Bed of Roses played at her funeral. "Ok, Mom will do". Her story as a huge Bon Jovi fan is too much to write here but over the journey we learned about what a wonderful human being he is. November 28th, 2007 she left us. That day we played Bon Jovi and Elvis throughout the day and she passed away to Bed of Roses. We played her favorite Bon Jovi song at her funeral. When I see him whether it be an interview or performing I see what a remarkable man he is. And my heart feels all the love I had with my Mom, and still do. So thank you, Jon Bon Jovi for coming along with us. It made our connection even stronger. ❤
