Dedicated to my grandfather...I remember the day he passed away nearly 20 years ago like yesterday. I loved him very much and to this day this song still stirs up memories...

Due to raw emotions, this is the fastest song I ever wrote which I dedicate to my Dad and his Dad.

Nearly 20 years ago when my grandfather died I was a lousy guitar player and not such a good a song writer...however to me personally this song has lived with me like I just wrote it yesterday.

Like the song says in the beginning, I was coming home one weekend from college to visit my parents and when I pulled in front of their home they were walking out the front door...just looking at them I knew something was very wrong...they told me the news about my grandfather and I literally went to my room and wrote this song in a matter of minutes. To say the least this is one of my favorite songs for it helps me to remember the good memories...
