Music is so beautiful. To know that your loved one touched so many through his music is a blessing. Also a blessing is the fact that we have hope to see our loved ones again. My prayer is that you share precious memories with family and friends. There is comfort in knowing that God cares for you and understands your sorrow. He loves you.
