Sittin here with my Lynyrd Skynyrd t=shirt on and saw Joe's post and found this.

Ronnie has a Neil Young pic on his t-shirt.

Southern man don't need ole Neil around anyhow

This is a concert 3 months before the little girl lost her daddy.

They were something to behold.

They used this flag to make Joe feel at home.

Some claim that t-shirt is why nearly 23 years after Lynyrd Skynyrd rock singer Ronnie Van Zant and guitarist Steve Gaines were laid to rest at Jacksonville Memory Gardens, vandals broke into a tomb and disturbed their remains in 2000.....Rumor is he was buried in that t-shirt.

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

Thank's for sharing and keeping the dream alive.

Van Zant was buried in Orange Park, Florida in 1977, but was relocated after vandals broke into his and bandmate Steve Gaines' tombs on June 29, 2000. Van Zant's casket was pulled out and dropped on the ground. The bag containing Gaines' ashes was torn open and some scattered onto the grass.Their mausoleums at Orange Park remain as memorials for fans to visit.

According to the cemetery listing website Find-a-Grave, Van Zant was reburied at Riverside Memorial Park in Jacksonville, near the grave of his father Lacy and mother Marion. Both his current resting place and the empty mausoleum in Orange Park are listed. The following statement was made on the Find-a-Grave entry of his current resting place in Jacksonville: "Due to the June 29th, 2000 vandalization of his original grave site, his casket was moved to this new location and buried in a massive underground concrete burial vault. To open the vault would require a tractor with a lift capacity of several tons. It is also patrolled by security.







A memorial park funded by fans and family of the band was built in honor of Van Zant. The Ronnie Van Zant Memorial Park is located on Sandridge Road in Lake Asbury, Florida, nearby his hometown of Jacksonville.

Every moment I remember
Thought those days would last forever
Then one night my strength fell from the sky

I can hear your voice beside me
I know it's there to lead and guide me
Give everything just to see you one more time. 

Chorus:
Where you goin' Freebird Child?
Riding on the southwind over magnolias growing wild
Trying to find your place to land among the stars
Live to dream my Freebird Child

So many nights so cold and lonely
Sometimes I dream that you still hold me
I loved it when you sang for me my song

Through the years, the words the music
Life's so torn and so confusing
I know your heart, your love in me lives on

Where you goin' Freebird Child?
Riding on the southwind over magnolias growing wild
Trying to find your place to land among the stars
Live to dream my Freebird Child


Where you goin' Freebird Child?
Riding on the southwind over magnolias growing wild
Trying to find your place to land among the stars
Live to dream my Freebird Child
I'll always be your Freebird Child

Fly so free . . . Keep the dream
Freebird Child . . . Daddy I'll always be
