[lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Stevie Nicks[/lastfm] is sharing some more fond memories of her mother, Barbara Nicks, who died on December 28th from pneumonia and emphysema…

She writes on her website, “My mother always told me that I had been on a mission to take my music and my poetry to the world since I was four years old… I know that right now she is whispering in my ear, ‘Don’t give up that fight because I am gone, because I am not gone. I am right here with my arms around you, and you are singing to me and we are dancing.’”

Barbara, who was 84, was a smoker for 70 of those years. Her husband Jess passed in 2005.  Source: Stevie’s official website:  RockALittle.com ~JZ.
