Don and chas ... I hope I wasn't mis-interpreted ... I listened to the song with my wife (who had a tear in her eyes listening to it) and we were both wondering what the back story might have been, but would not be so bold as to ask ... I think it was quite generous of Don to share his story ...
And the 'back story' always tells the tale ...
Oh no, I didn't think you meant it in a negative way! Thank you for the wonderful comments and telling me it caused you to feel the message, even though it was a sad one.
