Honoring the ‘front line’ – “Shining Thru”

Dear Readers ,

This week there is something to listen to rather than to read . My dear friend Alison Gatwood who spent decades teaching music to thousands of students in school (as well as private piano lessons – it was thru taking private piano lessons with her that we met and became friends ) composed a song called “Shining Through” 25 years ago to celebrate my husband Joe and my 25 th wedding anniversary . After hearing of his work as Health Officer & EMS Medical Director during this pandemic she re-worked that song to honor him and thank him and other of our family members -and all those on the ‘front lines’- for their service and sacrifice.
