Dick's Final Goodbye - New Year's Rockin Eve 2012

[@MsAchampion]

It hasn't been New Years for me since the passing of Dick Clarke. 😢 🙏🏾 ❤️

[@maddawgzzzz]

He was a great guy. Never said anything bad about anyone. He will be missed

[@johnissoevil]

As the years went by, Dick was easier to understand, so he was recovering little by little. We knew his voice wouldn't ever be back to the way it once was, but we salute his bravery in his last years.

[@Alaninbroomfield]

I saw beauty in him simply trying to enjoy the life he still had. I had good memories of him on these New Years celebrations.

[@BlackNGoldRules]

Hasn't been the same without him. He still looked young for his age. Damn stroke.

[@Barber747]

Yeah and it sucked. You can barely even hear anything he's saying. SMH 😔

Spending New Year's Eve with Dick Clark was a yearly ritual for me. Hearing him speak above makes me sad but I salute his courage in narrating this last one. Such a warm and pleasant host. I still watch the show, but it isn't the same. RIP. You will always be missed.

[@yanceyh.1850]

Your kind words about him ...touched me. Have a Happy New Year.

2012 really was the end of the world. Nothing felt the same after he died.

[@coltonmunroe2025]

No the world is not gonna end at 2012 don’t say that

[@truthteller4442]

It was the spiritual end of the world, according to the Mayans, but who even know how much of that is true. I think the elite just inject massive negativity into us and blame it on previous “predictions,” like a big game of mind control. There was a Huge massive negative energy shift in that year and things have never been the same since.
