Sorry Marion - I've not been paying attention!

I love Lilac Acres too. I am glad to see it is getting a bit of airtime (Rick said it would).

Sarah was a young woman I worked with - just a few years ago. She was a lovely young woman; one of those rare kind that tuned all the guys heads, and all the women loved. She came to me one day to tell me she had been diagnosed with cancer, and it was terminal. She wanted to work as long as she could and stay in Dallas (I was her boss, and we were a large, several hundred million$ per year, public corporation). I went to the corp chairman and told him the story. Asked for his support in keeping her wish. He said Yes, and they honored her request. She worked with us right until a few days before she died. She was absolute delight during this time. She was a shining example to so many - and they all loved her for it.

I had been asked to sing at her funeral, and I wrote the song for her (Sarah's Mountain Time). I choked up a little during the ceremony, wile singing it and was angry with myself, because I wanted the lyrics to be clear to everyone. So I determined to record it.

It's still a hard song for me to sing.
