The celebration fell on the anniversary of Prince's birth, but it was not referred to as a birthday party in respect to Prince's Jehovah's Witness faith.

Prince hasn't been forgotten by fans in Cleveland, home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Cleveland.com reports ( http://bit.ly/2sHbbBn ) that around 400 people clad in purple showed up to participate Wednesday in a "Prince Day" celebration at the downtown museum. Fans showed off their best dance moves and rocked out during an air guitar contest to songs including "When Doves Cry."

The celebration came on Prince's date of birth. Organizers were careful to not refer to it as a birthday out of respect for the artist's faith as a Jehovah's Witness, whose practitioners don't celebrate birthdays.

Kathryn Metz, manager of community and family programs for the Rock Hall, says Prince is a cultural icon who was important to everyone.

  In “The DaVinci Code” novel, the Pope had an albino assassin, sort of a 00VII, as a part of Opus Dio, the Jesuits, which was quite believable ….. if you know Catholic History. Little is known about the secret NY Triad Cabal known as “The Librarians”….. ……BROUHAHAHAHAA

  JWI was on the verge of doing so but couldn’t find your card in the card catalogue—none of which would have happened had he heeded my urging to modernize.

  Hello, Darlene, I just love your name, I had a cousin named Darline, and had a classmate also named Darlene! It's a pleasure to know another Darlene! Especially a Spiritual Sister! There's some websites, Ministry Ideaz , JW Stuff.com, and Etsy that I use to order my yearly buttons for the Conventions! They always send me what I order, and their also Jehovah's Witnesses, that send us the merchandise we order! You can check out these websites, and they might have what your looking for! I hope I have been helpful in assisting you, Darlene! Agape love, Shirley!😀
