I was truly verklempt by Dick Clark not abandoning his post as the official US ambassador of the New Year. I am so grateful to have him around to count down with me one more year. He showed great spirit and determination to just show up. Anyone else tear up or just me?

Is the love I gave her in the past, gonna be enough to last, if tomorrow never comes........

I was amazed and totally inspired by him. Growing up watching him countdown to new years is something that I will always associate with some very good memories. Yes, I teared up a little...

He is an amazing guy. Things just won't be the same some day when his time comes. We used to love American Bandstand.

I thought it took a lot of courage for him to come back, after his stroke and re-teaching himself to speak. He did a great job, and you could hear the significance of the moment in his speech....I thought it was very touching

Got to salute DC for his fortitude and love of life.

I didn’t get to see it , but I put the picture back in his attic and knew he’d be there.

How did he look and sound? I wasn't able to see him, but I'm glad to hear that he was able to make it back.
I make a lot of jokes about him being a robot or such because he hasn't changed in 40 years, but in all honesty New Years wouldn't be the same without him.
