Just wanted to thank you for sending me the CD "Love Is Eternal". I loved it and thought you would forward this to those who put it all together. While listening to the CD I felt like I was dancing with my memories. The music spoke to my soul and the lyrics spoke to my heart's lonely places. The selection of songs is incredible. I think they will speak to many different types of grief as well as relate to all generations. Music is sometimes difficult for grieving people to listen to. It is the language of the soul and stirs up so many feelings. It is a good thing for people to lean into their grief and stay with the feelings until the emotion is spent. Music helps us do this, Carl Jung said, "Go into your grief for there your soul will grow”. Kathy R, Bereavement Counselor, Long Beach, NY
The CD you gave me is so beautiful and soothing and part of my broken heart is healing just listening and reading...thank you a million times, those songs are my favorite.

----------- I find this cd to be excellent, I just lost my parents my Dad, on Sept 19, 2008 and my Mother on October 19, 2008. Both had the same funeral service dates, in September and October.They were both 85 years old and married 66 years. This cd is just like having a part of them all the time I listen to it. It’s wonderful. God Bless. Christine M, Bentleyville, PA
