My dad passed away peacefully on June 2nd with most of his immediate family present.

I wasn’t able to get there soon enough before Dad passed but I did get to talk face to face with him on my phone.

How I miss him but know he’s so much better off.   My Mom is doing well. God has brought much peace to our family.

Thank you all for your prayers and notes of encouragement.

Dad & Mom were a big part of my musical training without them even realizing it.  They always brought the hymns and songs to life by singing with such expression as though they were just speaking the words.  Dad always taught me to “feel” the music.

He would say “Singing is just elongated speech”.  How true that is!

Over the years the words to hymns have been such a balm to my soul.  Now…hymns have taken on a deeper meaning.

Mom and I were talking the other night on the phone…trying to come up with a playlist for tomorrow’s facebook event.

We decided to focus on hymns of heaven & comfort.  Mom reflectively said,  “You know…Dad sang more about heaven

recently than any other time.”

I will be playing live on Facebook tomorrow evening June 16, 2022… at 8pm EST.  Anyone on or off facebook can view the video at the following link:
