I remember one one day when I was a young adult I put this song on. My mom came running into the living room and just couldn't control her self. After that she love CCR.

Creedence Clearwater Revival - It Came Out of the Sky

This one too.... she knew all the words but from the Charley Pride version.
Credence Clearwater Revival - Cottonfields

Needles to say my Willy and the Poor Boy's ended up staying in her record colection.

Mine died on Thanksgiving Day, 2008 at 84.

Dad passed the following February at 91.

There isn't a single day that passes that I don't think of them, ever.
Despite anything I may have said here I always loved them, admired them and miss them terribly.

The last picture of them together on their 65th Anniversary in 2008.

My mother used to complain about the Beatles a lot. She would tell me they "ruined" my generation.

Then, I caught her crying the day John Lennon was shot. "How could somebody do this to him? He had such a big heart."

Her favorite Beatles song; "Julia".

Lost Mom one week before I met Florence, often wondered whethere she and Dad had anything to do with our meeting, Heart attack and she asked for no heroic neasures and so the second attack snt her to her rest two months shy of her 91st birthday. The solo picture was taken around the time sh and Dad married. The other was as they were standing in the garden of the house where I was born. Dad passed on in 1962 days shy of his 81st birthday.

Hiya Rob. Your Mom looks quite the confident lady.
