My brother worked with my mother back in December to pick out some music for my father's funeral. They came up with a couple of hours of the music my parents listened to when they were in their teens and early 20's. A lot of Jo Stafford and Frank Sinatra. "I'll be seeing You" referenced above and this one brought tears to her eyes Jo Stafford - "You Belong To Me" - YouTube
My mother's funeral was yesterday and we played the same CD he made for my dad. Lots of tears in lots of eyes.
God I miss them. ... |
