22 SEENA MAGOWITZ FOUNDATION He appreciated how genuine the Seena Magowitz Foundation event to raise awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer research is, especially for pancreatic cancer survivors. “I’m grateful information is getting out there and that the Foundation is celebrating the survivors.” A CONTINUING LEGACY OF INSPIRATION In the sunlight of a democratic and equal South Africa, Clegg was a cultural ambassador for his country. As much as he could, he continued to put on concerts for his fans all over the globe. In fact, in October of 2017, two and a half years after he was diagnosed, Johnny was performing at a sold- out venue in San Diego. A mutual friend brought Roger Magowitz, founder of the Seena Magowitz Foundation, to see Clegg perform there. Magowiz was so moved by Clegg’s story that he invited him to the Magowitz Foundation event in Boston. CANCER DID NOT SLOW CLEGG DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY UNTIL THE END ”I’m dancing, I’m singing, I’m writing. I put out a new album that went to number one on the Canadian world music charts,” he said at the Seena Magowitz Foundation Annual Classic in 2018. “It’s also being released in France.” Though Clegg finished chemotherapy less than a month before going to Boston, he had the energy and drive to perform for an enthusiastic, grateful audience at the golf classic. “You have to accept that you’re dealing with this cancer,” he said. “Your life takes a turn. You have to incorporate it. Instead of just saying, ‘Okay, I’m done for,’ you say, ‘Keep on doing what you’re doing.’ I’m carrying on with my music.” Legacy Heroes
