[@darrylmaxwell-os7pu]

I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS !!! ... i am allowed to attend LEON'S funeral !!!! Thank you...to EVERYONE who made this possible !😊❤🎉

[@edpaul3312]

When I think of what passes for music these days....I am sad for these young ones, as they don't know the great masters that we are losing as we "long-haired freaks" start to fly away to that better place. Men like Leon Russell only come around once in a rare moment. He was truly a master in so many ways. God Bless Elton John for giving him the respect he had earned, and being there for him when he needed a friend. Fortunately he will live on forever in our hearts, our memories, and his music. God Bless Leon Russell. He made the world a more beautiful place for us all.

[@fabiodejesuscamargoeletricista]

hello friend, thank you very much for your comment, I loved your comment, young people nowadays don't really know good music and it's fun to listen to and Leon Russell, for me, was one of the greatest singers in North American history and I have a lot to thank Elton John for this very special moment for Leon Russell when Elton John and Leon Russell made the album the union.

[@tessarix]

Wish there was a speaker list. I don't remember all their names, though I'm so old I recognize their faces. RIP Leon. Long ago, I jumped around with my baby in my arms to your music and it made us both smile and laugh and have fun. Your songs took me out of bad situations and brought me back to good situations. I was a super fan of yours, Leon. You are already so very missed...

[@kimbaldwindeaton4612]

Thank you, friend. You said it beautifully, thanks. I am an almost lifelong lover of Leon...

[@juniorjohnson5961]

As Leon would say ... Bless Your Heart 💗🙏

I love you in a place with no space or time............. Rest in peace, beautiful man.

[@tjmacs54]

Amen

[@holladaycummings7884]

You get me and I appreciate your thoughts & words for Leon.

[@GABADA]

Yes, so do I. After 40+ years, He is still my God. I will miss you forever.

[@patallgood9865]

@josef mengele Run along, little boy.

[@pep8ful]

I found Leon Russel in 1968...his music always hits the mark..." I'm singing this song to you..."love you brother.

[@jefftipton2470]

Nobody was cooler than Leon Russell

[@RettaFretta]

Such a beautiful person so talented! ❤

[@klkendell5642]

Live in Tulsa, member of this church. He was our shinning star, our treasure, we were so proud, he was a part of us, and the magnetism, the wonder never fades. We weren't ready, never would be; although we knew his health was precarious, death would surely not touch a man so talented, beautiful, humble. His absence has left a hole, but without the contribution he made from the 50's on, this universe would be sadly lacking musically. He's irreplaceable, one of a kind, and we all prayed he knew the impact he had. RIP Leon, we loved you, still do, Tulsa's hometown legend.

[@donnasmith780]

Beautifully put

[@motomuso]

Thank you Victory Baptist for sharing this.

[@Johlibaptist]

[@erobinson1]

RIP Mr. Leon Russell🕊 Thank you for writing one of my all-time favorite songs ‘A Song For You’ 🎶

[@mike856ms]

Bonnie Bramlett was really emotional singing. She loved Leon. He was a big supporter of her and Delaney and Bonnie.

[@cecilypacanin3001]

I found Leon in the 60"s...what a real cool cool Dude...RIP!

[@ROSALIECALIENDO]

I first saw him at Fillmore East with Elton. I was blown away and have been a fan since.

[@lindatawil3630]

Dear Leon, I'm just a simple woman, but in 1972 I listened to your first Album and for 44 years I have your music in my heart and records. For every emotion, for every occasion there is a Leon Russell song to express it. Thank you Stranger! I will love you for your songs and music till I die.

[@shippenman5977]

Got my first car at 15, before I could drive it. Put moms speakers out of house in the backseat, and had one cassette. It was Leon Russell, Carney. Mom did me right.

[@dalealongsr7085]

" And when my life is over, remember when we were together, We were alone and I was singing this song for you.

[@betdalton9834]

I grew up with your songs, Leon Russell. I cried so much to nurse my broken heart with your songs. Now that you are put to rest, your beautiful songs will reverberate in my heart... in my mind. Forever, it will be.

[@richlafleur2266]

[@wendyholzinger9410]

14, now almost 60 and my love for him began with carnie. then after that all recordings were such a part of my life. seeing hmm in concert around 77 at the paramount in Seattle. such a spiritual influence.

[@deborahlynch980]

Me too...it was the movie for the Concert for Bangladesh. I think I was 13 also. LOVE that top hat!!! But loved that hard bad boy sound so much more!!!!!! RIIP Leon

[@Bunnybinks]

Me too! I am 58 and I feel like a part of me died, too. Grateful to have come across this service on You Tube, as I was praying that Leon is now with the Lord. I, too, miss him greatly and am keeping his family in my prayers.

[@annchovey2089]

Leon helped me learn to like country music.

[@Deeinqld]

I discovered Leon Russell through my music club / night club / coffee n burger club way back in 1973. I discovered Jesus through him - I will always be in his thankful debt for all the times I could go to his music when I needed to balance out. Bless you Sir ! May his memory be a blessing forever.

[@TNPassiflora]

It was a beautiful tribute to a beautiful man! Thanks to the family for sharing this time with us. I will always love you, Leon Russell, rest peacefully now in the arms of angels...

[@whopperdad22]

God Bless and keep Leon Russell during his familys time of grief.

[@ramonaltamirano1549]

I had the proper pleasure of seeing Leon in Petaluma concert. The Mystic Theatre on May 22 2016. We were so close and personal at this venue. At the end of this magical concert, he told us to pretend he walked back for an encore as he sat there. We gave him a worthy and raucous standing ovation to honor the genius of this man.

[@GLD-hopeful]

What a legacy Leon left behind. God bless his family with many loving memories. So many people miss him. ❤️

[@LanieB95]

Thank you to the Bridges family for sharing this beautiful memorial service with us. May the Lord give you peace and comfort.

[@rentatrip1videos]

I was good friends with Leon's Cousin Ricky Bridges , Rick AKA Rockin' Rick was a professional "ROADY" and he shared stories of Leon .................................

[@fabiodejesuscamargoeletricista]

What a beautiful tribute to Leon Russell, he was a great American singer, the tribute is so beautiful, he deserves this tribute because he was an incredible person, rest in peace Leon Russell, we love him so much.

[@patricklockhart1015]

Leon is no longer a Stranger in a Strange Land. He is home with the Lord.

[@johnnyg3681]

John 3:14-21, Ephesians 2:8-9, John 5:24

[@patallgood9865]

I worked for Willie and Waylon. Leon was nuts and so nice. Genius. I was very lucky to know him.

[@MaBelleone1]

I am so thankful that he graced this world with his music...May he and his loved ones be at peace...

[@ronnie5129]

R.I.P. LEON, YOU HAD A HEART OF GOLD, YOU WERE SO KIND TO THE HUMAN RACE, YOUR MUSIC WILL BE PLAYED 100 YEARS FROM NOW, IF THE PLANET YOU LEFT IS STILL HERE, YOU TREATED ME LIKE WE WERE BROTHERS, AND I ALWAYS FELT THAT WE WERE, LOVE YOU FOREVER, COUSIN FIGEL

[@gypsiecowboy9361]

I saw u, danced to your music, laughed with your family on stage in Murfreesboro and again in Nashville and again in East Texas, years separated each event and yet each event was the same continuing story, the same lyrics, the same songs... the same heart, the same joy and the same understanding of the passage of time and sadness of loss... thank you my Brother, thank you my Hero... thank you for all you brought to this world and all you have left behind...

[@trustmeimadocktor]

To the 9 people who did not "like" this, how sad. Maybe you never really heard Leon, maybe he never really touched your life with his music. Maybe you did not like this tribute to the incredibly talented musician he was, or to the great character he had. Well, 1,012 (and counting) people far overshadow your sad opinion, to which you are entitled and for which we forgive you. This great talent will never be silenced, thanks to modern media, and there is just nothing you can do about that. Sing on Leon, sing on! R.I.P. brother.

[@zenithapollostar2766]

Leon Russell was my mentor ,my hero ,my inspiration and my teacher . I will miss him dearly. if it had not been for Leon,Elton,Little Richard ,and Jerry Lee I would not play piano today. I love you Leon and may God bless you and your family

[@rhonnachurch6929]

I was a little girl in mountains of Arizona and my parents had that 3 album live show recorded in Long Beach and I would dance to Leon on our picnic table while my mom worked in the garden pulling weeds. Best time of my life. I have family in Tenn and I would like to pay respects sometime if Leon is buried there. He is still to this day, one of my very favorites.

[@audreylang3209]

I came upon Leon in my sophomore year 1970. He struck my heart ❤️

[@robertunderwood6011]

Had the honor to see him shortly before his passing in Grants Pass Oregon played for hours on his passing I wept I was and always had been a fan

[@partslig123]

I can just see Leon looking down with that big smile that he always wore..Thank you Lord for lending us Leon for 74 years.

[@randallfultz6306]

i went to school with Leon at Will Rogers High i have listened to hi songs ever since i will miss him dearly.

[@rellrheeannaRN]

tears even years later .... an eternal master

[@tablaturebutler2823]

I watched and listened to this memorial in tribute, respect, and gratitude because I felt I owed it to him - we never met, but he gave me so much. I was one of the lucky ones to see him with Mad Dogs and Englishmen at Winterland in SF - I was utterly galvanized and could easily see that what was happening there was flowing through him. I followed his life and career from that day forward - he was the real deal, a quiet powerhouse of talent and integrity - he made my life better for having touched it. Thanks and blessings from one of the millions...

[@TheRarebird12]

I experienced Mad Dogs and Englishmen in Los Angeles all those years ago and was also thrilled for life...thank you for expressing so well what I'm feeling. Rest in light, Leon.

[@madasahatter4489]

Tablature -- Was also at that Mad Dogs and Englishmen San Francisco concert so many years ago -- will never ever forget it. (Wow - Leon Russell and Joe Cocker) You are absolutely right -- we could see the music, spirit and passion flowing through him.

[@jeffpalagi6811]

just now was able to comment, i am 60 yrs old and Leon has been my favorite musician and singer since 1970. will miss you my friend but still have the music. i was able to see three times in my life. i see you in heaven. peace

[@juniorjohnson5961]

Leon lives in the 💗 of the people 🙏

[@angiequarles9452]

I Love Leon even though he is no longer here on earth, he is still with us in his music! I remember the first time I saw him with the top hat and holy trinity shirt! I said what a beautiful man he is! I have all his records! And then, Leon and Mary made the Wedding Album! So Beautiful! Heaven sent and then another! I was so sad when they didn't make another one. However, Leon still kept going and I still listen to him and love him! He is just so like home and yet, beyond! His lyrics speak of all life's conflicts and blessings! That's why he is so beloved by so many people!

[@peacedove9513]

I went to my 50th class reunion in Massachusetts. ..while visiting a friend in Connecticut she showed me a line up for THE KATE (Katherine Hepburn playhouse) Leon was scheduled to play in February. ...Being that I'm from California ...I was excited for her... Since 1969 in Savanah Georgia I told her I feel in LOVE with one voice...and that I missed his last trip to California .... I promised to fly cross country to introduce her to the ONE VOICE. .. SO blessed to have seen him sooooo many times...Lucky to have held his hands on several occasions. .one of THE BROOKDALE LODGE FAITHFUL ..his beautiful family the BIG LOVE....he showed for band and family. ..filled rooms and hearts. ..My life is still filed with music daily....Still there will forever be Only One Voice.... RIP...THANKS FOR SHARING ... "WHAT will I do without you in my life"🎼🎶🎵I wanna go back to the island..✌💖🎼🎶🎵

[@mackydog99]

Got to see Leon Russell in '77 at the Universal Amphitheater. Him and his wife were facing each other on keyboards. RIP Leon.

[@uncleharry5758]

"Jesus On My Side" was a beautiful song he wrote and recorded in the early 80's wished they could have worked it into the service.

[@albakill4450]

[@tjmacs54]

I don't know this song, UncleHarry, but I will find it and savor it like I do all Leon's song.....Godspeed, my dear

[@RoseAnnetteBanks]

I will never forget the first time I was Leon Russel. He was standing on the stage of the Fillmore East, NY. The stage was dark the band was tuning up...he walked out. All I saw was a silhouette of him. I said to my friend......look at that guy with the Top Hat on. Little did I know what greatness I was about to experience. Thank you for the music. Rest in Peace.

[@dianejasinski593]

Rest Easy Leon, I miss your voice ,you were the most sexy ,handsome man

[@stevedelarosa8237]

Thank you to the family for sharing this memorial with us fans who discovered Leon at different times in his career. His music filled my life with wonderful memories of all the times I was fortunate to hear him tickle the ivories and pull out a song from his soul. I thank God Almighty for Leon Russell.

[@marvnave964]

I found this post not long after Leon's passing and was blessed by the Rainbow rendition. I still think of Leon and certain songs he brought to us. This night I came back to hear his version again and was blessed once again. I hope this will not be the last time he touches me. Live on Leon.

[@rosheaschouviller1738]

May2016, Seattle, WA Neptune Theatre...4th row...god it felt good to see Leon again...told him I loved him; and he replied back with,"I love you, too" man, that felt so good to be recognized by someone if his caliber. R.i.p. Leon...love you forever...

[@IsaDesOsiers]

RIP Mr. Leon Russell, yes, truly you were a genius and your music will not be forgotten. Very simple and authentic funeral. I was incredibly moved. What a force, talent and poet. We, your fans, in mourning.

[@ravinaidoo784]

And i've forgotten Leon, stand up Leon.who remembers this

[@lucyarcher5916]

I remember when I first became acquainted with Leon. I was in college. He was on stage within a close group of friends and family. He sang in a manner that was unique, unforgettable. I miss him. Amazing Grace. Many thanks and blessings to Jan for loving him so deeply and well.

[@elisebarthalow6075]

I have been a fan of Leon,too,since I was about 14.I'm also 58 years old.The first time I heard eon was when my oldest brother came to Ohio from California for a visit.He brought Leon with him and I was instantly hooked.This is the first that I've been able to watch his memorials,because you see, my mom went to heaven that morning too.I like to believe they entered those pearly gates together.I saw Leon last year in Cleveland,Ohio-he used to play the Beachland ballroom with Joe Cocker frequently.When I heard about his passing I immediately thought of him singing "His eye is on the sparrow".We miss you Leon.

[@dlcamp2001]

I had a Lady Blue. She became a Bluebird. I finally met Lady Blue 2. Never had to go back to the Island. Leon (from Tightrope): "I'm up on the tightwire flanked by life and the funeral pyre putting on a show for you to see" Special man. Special singer.

[@Schmoople]

May Leon Russell rest in peace; he's got some good company on the other side. If I am fortunate enough, maybe I'll see him on the other side. Such a special man is Leon Russell. Good night for now.:)

[@archmallon1883]

Thanks to the Russell family for sharing all the wonderful moments of Leon...God Bless.

I only heard last night that Leon had passed. I want to thank you for sharing the memorial service with us all. I 1st heard Asylum Choir II and was an instant fan...still am. I have spent the day listening to Leon and will be watching You Tube tonight. He made my young years a gas with his tunes and voice...just love you Mr. Russel. Thank you for all you have given this fan. Always, Mena

[@annamcohencohen4862]

Thank you so much for this beautiful service which he so much deserved !! Also, Thank you Elton John for everything you done for him. ...So happy that he was inducted into The Rock in Roll Hall of Fame .......

[@bettesizemore9558]

Wow! He was quite an artist. My husband and I wore out his albums and replaced them when we were so young. We saw him perform just this year at the Star Gazers Theater in Colorado Springs. It was so awesome and we are so glad we went. 43 years later! God has a special place for that great man.

[@MrGeroth]

Thank you Jesus for letting us use Leon for a short time here on earth, and to enjoy his music.

[@donnasmith780]

[@greanteawoman]

Thank you for sharing this service with those of us who could not be there in person, but who were there in spirit. Rest In Peace dear Leon. You were loved.

[@arteestsuzyq]

I am an artist and one of the people he reached and touched. I feel like I knew him. His music means SO much to me, I can't express it. If I could've met just ONE famous person in the whole world besides Jesus, it would be Leon Russell. I have a deep admiration for this man. I hope I get to meet him in Heaven. I listened to his music at 14 and now I am 58. His music touches my heart in the same way today as it grabbed me at 14 yrs old. God bless you, Leon.

[@donnasmith780]

Same!

[@missmikkol]

I can. In the beginning, My step-Mother Bonnie Bramlett starts it off with "A song for you" and "Superstar"

[@davewilson4929]

Mikkol Soter, she sure did him proud. Beautiful voice.

[@richardjean1933]

And Goodnight to you Leon. Thank you for your immeasurable gifts to mankind. You will be forever loved and remembered.

[@lindanoel1853]

That spirit of '69, '70, '71 that Leon made into his, our Music is deep in me, and Always his Music of then Sparks it Alive. So glad I got to see him at the little Bing (Crosby) Theater in Spokane, Washington in April 2015 and was able to run up to the front of the stage just as he was slowly getting up with his cane, facing the audience as they began going. I mouthed "Thank you! Thank you!" and blew him a kiss and bowed with Namaste. I don't know if he saw me behind his dark glasses but I know I sent my love out to him -- which is what Leon Russell brought up in us with his Music. I am grateful I was alive on our Earth for some of the time he was.

[@ssschneider7215]

Thank you for allowing us the privlidge to be here with his family.

[@nonarauch5909]

One of the best entertainers of my lifetime, Leon surely gave you his best performance....he was a kind considerate man who appreciated his fans and considered them friends... Leon has gone home to be with the Lord and we are surely going to miss the big man...thankfully his wonderful music will endure forever....God Bless this Good Man.

[@rubydawn1]

Gone but never forgotten his eyes are forever burned into the heart of all his fans.

[@cheryl2008008]

Loved hearing about some of the history and poignant stories about this great and talented icon. His music became a part of my life from the first time I saw him in concert at the Wharehouse in New Orleans in 1974; I was a fresh new high school grad. It has been a part of my life ever since. No matter the passing of time when I listen to his music I go to a happy and grounded place. His music will always be a part of my life. He will be greatly missed. Until the next life, soar high Leon.

[@hjeffkennedy1249]

[@gilbarros217]

It´s sad to Leon living this earth. His contribution for the art of music was extraordinary for to many people not realized it.
