    "OUR GLORIOUS "IRISH" ROSE"


    It was july19th,Serenity and i arrived at the motel...knocked at the door....a pause,as the butterflies danced a jig in our stomachs.The door opened and we were greeted with the most BEAUTIFUL,WELCOMING Smile...which sent the butterflies on their way, and our 2 and a half days began with our "BELOVED IRISH and LUTHER".





    The time went all too fast...we took pictures,visited the Indian Cultural Center of YAKIMA....about 35miles from our home, saw many murals in Toppenish,until the heat won out....we then got comfortable around the a/c and
    enjoyed eachother immensely!!






    The laughter still rings in my ears as "IRISH" seasoned her stories with her priceless humor...those sparkeling BLUE EYES full of spirit and feistiness!! The more she talked...the more drawn in you felt as you're aware that
    this remarkable woman is a true teacher of truth,dignity,loyality and unconditional LOVE!! IRISH shows us by example....for to take on such a long trip, under very challenging conditions with such courage, loyality and deep LOVE for her friends....overflows my heart with gratitude,awe,and deep loving pride insuch a gracious woman...i proudly call my "IRISH SISTER"





    IRISH, you have graced our lives profoundly....your courage, the depth of your character,your total unselfish-
    ness and deep LOVE for us all...moves me to tears....in you awesome "GOODNESS" Your very presence in my life have filled me with unending RICHNESS,beyond imagination.Your wisdom is profound and your uplifting outlook is a continious evergrowing rainbow of hope,faith and genuine LOVE!1 HOW very PROUD your children must be of such a magnificent MOM!! You have traveled many miles to share your PRECIOUS LOVE, DEAR HEART.....And i love you with all my heart!! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!



    OH...by the way...There's a fella here, who sends his LOVE too!! And is still callin for YOU and LUTHER!!

    The song is..."ANGELS AMONG US"


    Took a shortcut through the woods, and I lost my way
    It was getting late, and I was scared and alone
    But then a kind old man took my hand and led me home

    (Sang)
    Mama couldn't see him,
    Oh, but he was standing there
    And I knew in my heart,
    He was the answer to my prayers.

    Chorus:
    Oh, I believe there are angels among us
    Sent down to us from somewhere up above
    They come to you and me in our darkest hours
    To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
    To guide us with the light of love.

    When life held troubled times,
    And had me down on my knees
    There's always been someone
    To come along and comfort me

    A kind word from a stranger, to lend a helping hand
    A phone call from a friend, just to say I understand
    And ain't it kind of funny at the dark end of the road
    That someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope.

    Chorus:
    Oh, I believe there are angels among us
    Sent down to us from somewhere up above
    They come to you and me in our darkest hours
    To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
    To guide us with the light of love.

    They wear so many faces,
    Show up in the strangest places
    To grace us with their mercy,
    In our time of need.

    Chorus:
    Oh, I believe there are angels among us
    Sent down to us from somewhere up above
    They come to you and me in our darkest hours
    To show us how to live, to teach us how to give
    To guide us with the light of love.

    To guide us with a light of love... lyrics submitted by Samantha

    "THE SOFT GOOD-BYE"


    When the light begins to fade
    And shadows fall across the sea,
    One bright star in the evening sky.
    Your love's light leads me on my way.

    there's a dream that will not sleep,
    A burning hope that will not die.
    So I must go now with the wind,
    And leave you waiting on the tide.

    Time to fly, time to touch the sky.
    One voice alone, a haunting cry.
    One song, one star burning bright,
    May it carry me through darkest night.

    Rain comes over the gray hills,
    And on the air, a soft goodbye.
    Hear the song that I sing to you
    When the time has come to fly.

    When I leave and take the wind
    And find the land that faith will bring,
    The brightest star in the evening sky
    Is yours to find for me.

    Is yours to find for me.

    BE BACK SOON...as onery as ever!!
