Thank you so much for the kind comments!
The family was all gathered at the club again tonight. Most have to go back to distant destinations tomorrow. I played the recording for them and they loved it. Each one thanked me for doing it and they all want a copy of it. They, and I, were smiling through the tears. It was very emotional but seemed to really please them as they will have this to help remember their loved one.
I thought long and seriously about redoing the recording, cleaning up the chords and melody and making the words fit better, shortening it a little, etc., but I decided to leave it exactly as it "came to me". I think for them it was the right choice.
Thank you all for your support and encouragement! Something like this makes what we do seem worthwhile after all.
