Annotation: In the fall of 2005 a listserve conversation was initiated by my husband, Tony Silbert, around the topic of healing conversations, particularly those having to do with family healing around death and dying. On March 6, 2006, Tony’s mother, Lynne LaMarche, passed away peacefully after a five-year battle with lung cancer. Before her passing, however, I had the opportunity to build on our family’s healing conversations in a manner that translated stories into song. I collaborated with a new friend of mine (whose husband Tony and I had met in Guyana, believe it or not), Anna Huckabee Tull. Anna is a commissioned singer-songwriter (and accomplished psychologist) who has a natural gift for cutting straight to the meaningful center of feelings, emotions, and stories. My “secret” partnership with her (without Tony’s knowing) resulted in the composition of two very special songs -- music that Tony and I found profoundly healing during our time of grief. These lyrics continue to breath life to our very precious memories of Lynne.
I dedicated these songs to my loving husband, Tony, in honor of his unconditional loyalty to family and his capacity to see the radiant light that shines in every person, his mom in particular. I also dedicate these songs to Lynne for her enduring positive attitude, loving smile, and friendly Kentucky “Hi Hon!” greeting she shared with everyone she met. From our healing hearts to yours, may you find peace in the magic of song.
