    3. Thought some of you may be interested in this native McGLOHON of Pitt County, NC, who journeyed on last week, but left us with the rich legacy of his wonderful music. Loonis McGlohon and Charles Kuralt, another North Carolina native, wrote the musical ³North Carolina is My Home² in 1983 and performed it throughout the country and in Europe. If you've never had the opportunity to see this wonderful musical tribute, by all means find a copy to rent. It will make you proud to have NC roots. You can read his obituary and another news article about his life and work at the web pages listed below. If the article is no longer on the web page, I'll be happy to email it to you. ‹ Trish € OBITUARIES 1/27/02 The Daily Reflector (Greenville, NC) "Loonis McGlohon CHARLOTTE ‹ Mr. Loonis McGlohon died Saturday, Jan. 26, 2002, at his home..." http://www.reflector.com/news/obits.html € Reflector.com Local news 1/27/02 The Daily Reflector (Greenville, NC)  "Pianist, songwriter, N.C. booster Loonis McGlohon dies at 80 Staff, wire reports CHARLOTTE ‹ Loonis McGlohon, who with composer Alec Wilder wrote ³Blackberry Winter² and hosted public radio¹s ³American Popular Song² in the 1970s, died Saturday at the age of 80....
