Snort!
I never really t...'She's gone'. Snort!<br /><br />I never really thought about it either, Laurita, until I was at a funeral last week and the home played a number of my aunt's favourite songs. There was Coal Miner's Daughter, and lots of Johnny Cash and I thought, wow, that's nice. And then I thought, what are they going to play at mine? Does anyone even know what my favourite songs are? I asked Dave and he, the Good Dave that he is, came up with a few. (Brownie points.) But I thought I'd write them down so, if I croak in the near future, they're there for posterity. Or until Blogger croaks. Whichever comes first.Cathy Olliffe-Websterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12729578896443750402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8260274117021957060.post-66847189377501375472012-01-11T08:17:27.806-05:002012-01-11T08:17:27.806-05:00Gorodon Lightfoot is a good choice.
