All my web pages are family safe,so please feel free to email my links to your family and friends. Here is a little about myself: TOM TRIPP's love for country music can be traced back to his growing up on a small Kansas dirt farm. Tom was the youngest of seven children. His father was a storyteller (as his father was, and his father before him). Tom's father and mother both worked hard to keep their family fed. At the end of a long day, his father would sit next to the old coal-burning stove and tell stories about growing up in the coalfields of southeast Kansas, and of his many adventures in life. Tom learned the art of storytelling at an early age in life, and it can be heard in the stories and songs he writes today. Tom has traveled across every state in the USA but two... Alaska and Hawaii. When asked why he hasn't visited those states yet, Tom just smiles and says: "I always leave the best for last, and my life is far from over." Tom has looked down upon this old earth from the top of the Rocky Mountains. He has watched the sun rise and set over two oceans. He has traveled through the hot desert and walked upon the frozen ponds of the northland, but he has always returned to Kansas... the place where he hangs his hat. Tom Tripp is the proud parent of 4 grown children , Jason , Chris , Nicole and Gina and a Grandfather of 4.

Story behind the song
Tom Tripp's mother has Alzheimer's disease (she is 93 years old). Tom took care of his mother until the spring of 2001 then he had to place her in a nursing home where she could receive 24 hour attention. One day, Tom went to visit his mother at the nursing home, & when he entered her room, he seen she was laying in her bed & was sleeping. He then went over & set down next to her bed & he noticed how peaceful she looked, laying there. After about 10 minutes, she woke up & smiled then closed her eyes again then said "goodnight." Realizing that one day, her goodnight, could be forever, he went home that night & wrote this .... Mother entered into Heaven on 01-12-07 , I miss you Mama
Lyrics
............................................ She tried to remember all the faces of the family that was gathered around her bed, she knew that somewhere in time , she knew everyone .. but her health had confused her and stolen all her memory away... but we held on to the love that momma always gave. (Chorus) She is only sleeping in the arms of Jesus , she is carried away upon Angel Wings. Mama made be out of our site but to mama it was just a good night .. she is only sleeping in the arms of Jesus Christ. / The night by her bedside, we all gathered around to tell her goodnight , we knew that mama didn't have long to go. Mama talked of Heaven and she had dreams of a mansion that was all so bright, and when the time came , mama just smiled , closed her eyes and said goodnight. (Chorus) She is only sleeping in the arms of Jesus , she is carried away upon Angel Wings. Mama made be out of our site but to mama it was just a good night .. she is only sleeping in the arms of Jesus Christ. .............................................
