Woody Guthrie family and friends, a short story by John Haughton.This is the story of Woody Guthrie, who for me is one of the most important people that ever lived on this earth. His story is truly awesome and unique in many respects, and in a sense I worship at his feet. Life threw the most horrific tragedies in his path and he succeeded in managing them until he was a victim of the dreaded Huntington's disease, which was responsible for his mother's death also. Members of his family were victims of fire tragedies, car accidents and of course Huntington's disease, which took some of Woody's siblings and some of his children but thankfully not all and his son Arlo with other members of the family has kept the singing and the tradition of folk musical performance in the spotlight. The question might be asked, and rightly so, why another Woody Guthrie tribute when every aspect of his life down to the last 't' has been fully documented many times. But this is my resounding tribute to him, who I, in a sense, worship, for what he represented, what he achieved, and his resilience in the face of multiple tragedies that fate inflicted on him and his family.
