The "redeemed of the LORD" are praising HIM for our beloved's finished earthly course.
Grateful to GOD are we for allowing our loved one to serve his community in uplifting the saints through music in song and instrument.
Thank You family for sharing him.
However, those private moments will forever reside in the recesses of our mind and thoughts, our "you-tube" videos, for personal viewing.
Be blest: we are never alone to bear it all.
