Two weeks ago this friday I lost my mom to a long fight with cancer. We are having her services this friday. There won't be a singer but I created a cd that will be played instead. The songs that I added are by singers that she really liked.

Amazing Grace ~ Mahalia Jackson
Angel of the Night ~ Angela Bofill
Come to Jesus ~ Mahalia
Gamillah ~ Prince
God Shall Wipe Away All Tears ~ Mahalia
He'll Make A Way ~ Sam Cooke
Hero ~ Glady's Knight & The Pips
I'm Going To Tell God ~ Mahalia
I Gave Up Everything To Serve Him ~ Mahalia
I Walked In The Garden ~ Mahalia
In The Upper Room ~ Mahalia
It Won't Be Very Long ~ Sam Cooke and The Soul Stirrers
Keep Me Everyday ~ Mahalia
The Lord's Prayer ~ Areatha Franklin
Lord Remember Me ~ Mahalia
Nearer To Thee ~ Sam Cooke
Spirit In The Dark ~ Areatha
Swing Low Sweet Chariot ~ The Mighty Clouds Of Joy
Touch The Hem Of His Garment ~ Sam Cooke and The Soul Stirrers
Wholy Wholy ~ Areatha

Gamilla may seem like a odd choice but it is such a beautiful piece of music that I just had to add it plus my mom like it.

I know that her spirit will be there so this 1 is for you mom.

What a brilliant, thoughtful idea. Your mom obviously loved some great music/artists.

And what better way to communicate not only a bit about her spirit, but to readily illuminate just how much of it will live on through others.

My sincere condolences for your great loss.
