One of the things that Marjorie has done has given me the joy of family. It’s a joy I never really knew. I spent a long time being lonely and hiding, and now, at Christmas, there’s this huge family. That’s something that’s very new to me. And very special. Joe Walsh Read Quote

When I married Marjorie, along with her, I got this very large family and a bunch of family friends. It’s a dynamic I’ve never been around. I’ve always been kind of a loner, and my attempts at domestic life failed miserably. So the family dynamic is a great thing. Joe Walsh Read Quote
I had left the James Gang, left Cleveland, and gone to Colorado because Bill Szymczyk was there, and so were a whole bunch of other people I knew. Joe Walsh Read Quote
