in Caring For a Spouse or Partner

“When Memories Fade” by Jane Southwick Cool, arranged by Eric Nelson.  On YouTube, sorry, I don’t know how to provide a link.  

If you’re needing a good, cathartic cry, give this beautiful “hymn”-like song a listen.  

* Look for the “mix” version, lyrics are printed out.

    Thank you, June, for providing the link.  (One day I'll get my grandkids to show me how.)  It was the first link that you provided.  I liked that one because the lyrics are provided and they are so poignant and touching. I watched the other (St. Olaf choir), but couldn't always decipher what the words were and they are so important to the song.
