RIP Kris Kristofferson

 Kris was an army captain, a helicopter pilot, Rhodes Scholar, an actor, a heartthrob and an amazing songwriter. A moment that resonates with me is Kristofferson’s response when Sinead O’Connor was booed off the SNL stage for criticizing the Catholic Church’s deliberate ignoring of child sexual abuse by its own. She ripped up a photo of the pope. Kristofferson was told to get her offstage but instead he comforted her. His kindness is what I will remember most about him.
