Some stories have to be shared. My husband was a musician, not unlike Ellis. He played out for many years, and raised 2 opera singers. My son is with the Tanglewood Festival Chorus. My daughter had an accident and was intubated too long, voice gone. Bud got sick 9 yrs ago, and died 3yrs ago. Needless to say, the music in my life died too. I have walked around, absolutely lost for 3yrs. I could not even listen to the radio, nevermind a CD. With great difficulty, we finally found the hidden location for Apr 13th. Listening to the guitars be tuned was like a dagger! Then, it was as if magic happened. Peyton was amazing….but, my long lost Ellis revived my soul. So, our move from the ‘other side of Mass’, is not so bad! Our move to “Heaven on Earth”, has just gotten better. Thank you.
