I wonder if any of the guys parents are still alive.

I know Don's father, Glenn's mother and Don F's parents are not alive. Are the other guys parents alive that you know of.

Timothy's mother is alive and living in Sacramento. I have never read anything about the fate of his father.

Don's has said in interviews that his mother has passed away. Glenn's step father is still alive, as he stated in several After Hours interviews, but little is known about his real father who he mentioned at the Niagara Falls concert a few years ago; Glenn doesn't even bear his name.

I don't know about the other guys. I think I remember hearing Joe's had passed away but I can't remember where I heard it, so I could be remembering wrong.

Wikipedia says that Joe's dad was killed in a plane crash when Joe was 5. Joe was later adopted by his step-father whose surname was "Walsh". Without that, we'd be singing the praises of "Joe Fidler".

Found some information:
Rocker Don Henley's mother dies (http://amarillo.com/stories/2003/09/30/usn_rocker.shtml)

When I tried to look up Joe, all I got were articles about Congressman Joe Walsh. Darn his common name! lol

I know nothing about Joe's parents past the early 70's. Mother & step father, is who I'm talking about.

Down with allllll the "fake" Joe Walsh's!! So tired of them coming up in searches etc. How dare they pretend to be Joe Walsh! ;-)

I believe Tim's father, Danny, passed away around 1989. I don't remember where I heard or read it though.

Bernie and Felder have lost both of their parents.

Joe's Mother has passed away but in a video on You Tube he introduced his Father and the two of them talked for about a minute. BUT that was last year when he was doing the Analog Man tour.

I finally found it. Joe and his Dad come on at .33 and its very short.
Go to You Tube-Joe Walsh. Look for Joe Walsh Analog Man Tour in NY and MA.

Danny died in January 1989.

Here's the video. I see where Joe gets his sense of humor. I know Mr. Walsh adopted Joe, but Joe looks a little like him. Around .22 seconds they come on.

Thank you guys so much!! It's incredible to have a living parent (step or otherwise) when you're in your 60's. Good to see that even tho Joe lost his real dad he got to have a father figure in his life for many, many years. Thought I saw all his promo videos for Analog Man but I must have missed this one.
