Thanks Ray. I agree: it's not pleasant reading. My Ma-in-Law was a lovely lady, with a few quirky aspects including her sense of humour, but very clever with arts and crafts, and very loving towards her family and her dear, departed husband. That song is totally not her.
I can think of so many other pieces of music or songs which would have paid a fitting tribute to her. She loved Andre Rieu's music, and I've been listening to a couple of Sandy Denny albums in my car this week and when her beautiful song Like an Old Fashioned Waltz came on, I cried partly because it is about flowers. (Note: Ma-in-Law was a florist at one stage in her life.)
Oh well, I'll just have to let go and listen to the music myself as a tribute to her.
