BESIDE ME ALWAYS – PART 5
Even though it’s been three decades, I kept my promise to Jason. At his funeral I announced tearfully, “I will keep his memory alive!”
Jason is very much a part of my music and songs. When I sing, I feel spiritually connected to him. Continue reading →

YOU’RE BESIDE ME
When my book became available two days before Mother’s Day, I eagerly shared the news. And then the reality of it all hit me. I put my head down on my desk and cried. They were tears of sorrow, tears of joy, and tears of healing. Continue reading →

DON’T KNOW WHERE I’M GOING
The lyric line of “not sure where I’m going” seemed like a perfect title for this post – at first. But the truth is that I do know where I’m going. I was given a magical new song last week to help me. Thank you, God. Continue reading →

DRIFTING DREAMS IN A COOL, WISPY SKY
Just like the importance of vibe with singing, I knew that I needed to feel my words. I certainly did when I recorded Jason’s story.

Buy I will NEVER take money for that. I came home and saw a message on my computer asking me if I could help a family whose child was dying. I was ready.
