For Mother's Day on Sunday a pretty waltz named for that special day
seems fitting. The tune was popularized in Canada by Don Messer and
His Islanders during the 60's and 70's. The sheet music is not available
at the biggest music store in my area nor could I find it on the Internet.
This ABC was transcribed from an older folio that resembles hand written
manuscript. The folio misnamed the tune "Mother's Waltz" (traditional)
when in fact the composer is John Durocher and the correct title is
"Mother's Day Waltz".
