03.30.08 My wife’s mother passed away 5 years ago on the 1st of April! She was diagnosed with thyroid cancer on the 14th of February, and 6 weeks later she slipped away at 59 years old! The song “The Living Years” already had caused a relevant stirring in my mind when it came out in 88’! After Diane’s death, I realized that I needed to nurture my strained relationship with my father before I might not have the opportunity! The song’s powerful message spurned me to take action, and today my father is very involved in my life………Act now people! |
