Going to Arizona


Hey everyone, Dan here.

I just have to post that my Great Grandmother Ray passed away a couple days ago and I will be going to Phoenix to attend her services and to sing some songs to pay my utmost respect for a woman I have always treasured.

She was always willing to take a random call from me, even in the evenings. I could call her and say, "Grandma would you like to hear a new song I just wrote?" And in her squeaky voice she would reply, "You know I do."

I love her very much. I am sad, very sad, that she is gone. But happy that I have had the honor of having such a magnificent woman in my life and in my family. Her funeral will be Friday April 30, 2010.

I just know she is already an Angel. She always was and she now has her wings. I just want her to know that Grandma, I love you. I always will treasure you. Thank you for all the tremendous encouragement, all the hugs and kisses, and all the wonderful things you have said to me throughout the years. Thank you grandma for being the best in the world.

PS Grandma I'm writing you a song and I'm going to sing it everywhere and anywhere I can. I love you.

  2. I feel like "I'm so sorry" is all I ever say about your great-grandma's passing and it never feels sufficient. I hope Arizona treats you well, and as always I'm just a phone call away.

  3. So, hey, Dan. This is your neighbor Georgia from two doors down. It was fun to see your new tour van and hear some of your music today. Thanks for the invitation.

    Your grandma looks and sounds like a great person. You're lucky. I feel sure she's going to stay interested in everything you're doing and keep a loving eye on her treasured grandson. What a sweet smile she's got! Anyway, I know what it's like to miss a dear grandma—I took care of mine for close to a decade.
