Dear Mike ,

I still miss you. It's over three years later but I miss you more with each passing year. I listen to your songs and it's like you're still here. Your voice, your beauty, and your songs are captured on vinyl and in my heart.

Living in a world without Mike Nesmith is not the same. Thank you for the boundless gifts - the songs, the reruns of the show, the concerts, the insight, your writing. I'll always love you and your music will live in my heart forever. ❤...

Mike. We met several times and you were so down to earth and kind. I saw 2 of your last concerts with Micky and you were wonderful. I think about you every day and miss you so very much. So much love and respect to you.

Mike Nesmith was a true visionary, an uncompromising song writer and beloved actor. The songs especially, "Circle Sky" and "Listen To The Band" are among the best songs ever written. I truly regret not being able to to see he and Mickey on their last tour! I am so glad he embraced his fans and our unending love of his music and and of The Monkees. He will go down in history as one of the brightest minds and flames that ever has burned.

Rest in peace Papa Nes. Love, Kathleen

I was in love with Nes since I was 12 years old. I think we're soulmates in other lives in other times together. It hurt my heart big time when I heard of his passing. My condolences to all his family. Love, Kathleen


Michael, you are definitely missed in this world. You as well as your other band members made this world a better place in which to live. Yes, I was one of those kids who sat in front of the TV in the mid-sixties and sang along with your music. While I was a hair younger for being a Beatles fan, The Monkees fit right in place for myself and so many other fans. Thank you for some of the best memories of my sixty-seven years.
