A while ago you made a CD for me of some miscellaneous
songs, I played it over and over, but alas I lost the CD. I always wanted to repay the favor and I
finally have accomplished it. I hope you
enjoy it.
There are times in my life where I can step back and say
that God did Bless me with a sister and brother, for without them I would not
be who I am today. They support me when
I need them most and let me know (without any hesitation) when I am wrong. I may be bruised and battered (from all those
times you hit me with the boxing gloves) but I have come out stronger than
before, mainly from listening to these songs.
Some are funny, some are serious and some give me energy to dance.
My style of music has changed over the years. It used to be that I would listen to 80’s
when I would travel home; this transpired to Van Morrison and now it is a mix
of Rock-a-Billy Gospel. Not only has my
music changed, but my definition of “HOME” has as well. For the word “home” to me is meeting my
Savior and seeing everyone again. But
for the time being be encouraged to know that in the future when I drive up to
see you and Lisa at Peabody Retirement Home I will be playing the following
songs. Maybe if you are lucky I will
bring you a Cheeseburger and Cherry Coke from Mr. Daves!
Love you very much and I will always keep you in my
prayers!
