When I heard the news he passed yesterday- I felt like part of me was gone- more specifically that part of my youth that made me both smile and cringe. I felt old, I felt sad, and I thought how much his family was going to miss him.
John- thank you for always making me smile, laugh and feel like I was perfect just the way I was~
Special shout out to my friend Steve for posting the following quote on his FB Status- it sums up the worlds thoughts on John~
John Hughes: "The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, waistoids, dweebies, dickheads... they all adore him, they think he's a righteous dude." RIP my friend.......

What a loss. I went to high school from 1982 - 1986, so his movies were IT!!! I may have to do a John Hughes marathon this weekend in remembrance.
I was so young during the time these movies were released, but somehow, they made their way into my life anyway. I am an 80's child, through and through and John Hughes movies are on my DVD stand, right along side my musicals. :)
I am having my 13 year old sister over this afternoon and I am going to educate her by watching The Breakfast Club. Sigh. RIP John. You defined a generation.
