I am very shocked about Bob Welch like everyone else may he rest in peace and God is with him my deepest sympathy to his family and close friends a legendary songwriter and guitarist musician.Very sad a great loss to our Fleetwood Mac family and to the musical world another talent we have lost.

Unbelieveble. I can't imagine him being gone. Loved his music. So sad to hear he was in so much pain he took his life. My heart goes out to his family. Stevie's words were very comforting.

They were. Classy gal. I am wondering if/when we will hear from Fleetwood and the McVies...

This is horrible! I loved Bob Welch's era of Fleetwood Mac. All the lineups that included him are among my favorites. RIP

Hearing about his status as an invalid makes this tragic story even sadder. The poor man! I feel for his wife and his friends.

Mick and Steve said some fine words. I wish John and Christine would step up, too.

I just read on Facebook that John is in Japan and may not know yet.

I heard about his suicide on the news last night. The first thing I did was head over to youtube to watch his '81 Roxy performances.

So sad, so tragic...
