Guest AvaJoyce Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 In April when Radiology gave him that Sept. follow-up appointment I thought well, that's a good sign. 'Cause in January when I had bought a jar of jelly I thought, I wonder which will come first, finish this jar of jelly or J.T. die. That's him 1 yr ago--in the middle w/ white T-shirt; me on guitar. And him singing & playing: click--> Take Me in Your Life Boat <--click Quote
stand4hope Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Hi AvaJoyce, I am so sorry you lost your beloved to this horrible disease. Please accept my most sincere sympathy. God bless you, Peggy Quote
pecola Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 AvaJoyce, I'm so sorry you lost your love. I clicked on the link in your post and loved the "Take Me In Your Lifeboat" song. Are you playing on that song also? What beautiful music. May God hold you close right now. Gina Quote
Fall54 Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Daer Ava Joyce, How very sad to listen to that. I am a huge bluegrass fan too! I am so sorry you have lost your loved one to this dreaded disease. May you find comfort in God and the memories you shared. God Bless You, Jane Quote
Guest AvaJoyce Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Thank you. (Southern-sounding, aren't we?) Yes, I'm playing guitar & singing a little harmony on the chorus. http://members.carolina.net/avajoyce/so ... feBoat.mp3 My cousin Laura & I used to groan & roll our eyes when Mama & Uncle Joe played what we called "that ol' hillbilly music." (We liked the Beatles.) Now I'm back to my Bluegrass roots. AvaJoyce, I'm so sorry you lost your love. I clicked on the link in your post and loved the "Take Me In Your Lifeboat" song. Are you plaing on that song also? What beautiful music. Here's J.T. & family at his 68th birthday party in May, six weeks before he died. His oldest is around 40 and youngest is 11. He was too weak to stand & play his mandolin, but the band gathered around him... Click--> http://members.carolina.net/avajoyce/im ... Chains.mpg <--(little movie) Quote
Fall54 Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Ava Joyce, What a wonderful video for you to have and I am sure you have many more. I felt like I was at a bluegrass festival when watching it except for all the sadness I saw all around. My Brother passed away in June and he too loved Bluegrass. We are a big bluegrass family but none of us played but we sure did enjoy it!! I am so very very sorry. I am sure he will be missed more than anyone can ever express. He may have broke the chain but as we all go to Heaven one by one that chain will link again. God Bless You and Yours, Jane Quote
