Words of Wisdom – Bob Marley

Bob Marley became much more than a musician in his lifetime.  He was a global icon who stood behind his beliefs and values.

Bob Marley introduced the world to Reggae music and shared his compassion and empathy with his enormous audience. Bob was a champion of the underdogs and always stood up for those who had less of a voice.

Before his death from cancer in 1981 at age 36, Marley received The United Nations Peace Medal of the Third World in 1978. He was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.

The BBC proclaimed Marley’s “One Love” as Song of the Millennium. In 2001, Marley was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Grammys.
