I truly hope this isn't what she sent to Peter Jennings because if it is, I'm embarrassed for her. This letter is incredibly self-absorbed. It's like "Let me comfort you by telling you about how I persevered after 911 with the help of my good friend Don Henley. Because you were my favorite newscaster on 911 and so telling you the tale of my heroic decision to continue sharing music with people to help them forget is totally meaningful."

Yikes, Stevie.
You know, I couldn't help but think the same thing. I know her intentions were nothing but pure, but it did come off as a little indulgent, as much about her as it is about him. I'm not trying to slam her here but she could have chosen her words a little differently.
