I hear you. Well, we all go there too. Hopefully, we will “see them again”

“That as you saw me go I was singing this song...”

I love the concept of entering some ethereal room, beautifully lit, and seeing all those people I knew there, smiling warmly...raising a drink as I enter!

Well, at least I hope that is it, and not the other place...

Thanks for posting...Loved the music from the WWII era, and her especially...Seemed to have a bit of a wistful tone to it, and ‘spose that’s appropriate given the times...She was a favorite of the late Mrs. LtM...

Rest in Peace!

Had a vision of that ‘ethereal room’, after my mom died.

She was sitting across a table from one of dear friends from her youth in the 20s. They both were young as they were then, smiling quite happily and excitedly talking back and forth.

hope that helps
