RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS - MY LOVE

I love everything about this song:

This guy reminds me of a simpler time with good haircuts, slick dressing and clean living.

He also reminds me of my wife's dad that died in Vietnam almost exactly 50 years ago attempting to save a life of one of the the guys in his platoon.  He was loved over there.  People knew him as a good man.

A bunch of his buddies were going to gather together in his Idaho hometown for a 50th reunion to honor him.  That is cool.  Where your influence is still felt five decades later.  Universally loved guy like my wife.  Good to the core.  Not perfect - but good.  Just good.

I look forward to meeting him.  And I hope I get to go first so I get to be there to witness the reunion of my wife and him; and our son who went before us.  It will be quite sweet to watch the melee and goodness!

Time can do so much - and can be hard for those who are parted.
