Thank you so much to every single one of you who has reached out since the passing of my good friend Doug Fieger, the man who wrote 'My Sharona'. 

I am overwhelmed by your thoughtful, caring and loving words and taking the time to share your fond memories of Doug and his music with me.

Since the song first came out and every day since, it is magical to see how many people have been touched by my song and The Knack.

This past weekend Doug was surrounded by many loved ones including some of his all time idols. It was actually quite beautiful.

His passing is painful. He was way too young, too full of life. He loved music.

From the time Doug and I first met, both of our lives changed forever. It’s very rare for two people to have such an impact on each other. The bond we shared is something that I will treasure as long as I live, he will always have a special place in my heart.

Doug would be honored to know how much you care. I thank you for your kind words and for keeping Rock and Roll alive.

With much love,
Your Sharona
