Subject: RE: theresa tooley From: nutty Date: 03 Jan 12 - 05:15 AM Here is a song I wrote shortly after Theresa's death but I couldn't read it, let alone sing it out, without bursting into tears. I hope to record it on my next CD I'm so glad that she is still remembered for the immense pleasure she gave to countless people. HOIST UP THE SAIL (A SONG FOR THERESA) CHORUS HOIST UP THE SAIL AND GLIDE ACROSS THE OCEANS OR HARNESS THE WIND AND FLY HIGH UP IN THE SKY LAY DOWN YOUR HEAD AND LET THE SHIP IN MOTION ROCK YOU TO SLEEP AS WE ALL SAY 'GOODBYE' MAY YOU FIND THOSE LOST COMPANIONS ALL THOSE FRIENDS WHO'VE GONE BEFORE MAY THEY GUIDE YOU TO SAFE HARBOUR WHEN YOU REACH THAT DISTANT SHORE MAY YOU NE'ER AGAIN BE SILENT MAY THE SINGING NEVER CEASE MAY YOUR VOICE BE HEARD FOREVER IN THE PLACE WHERE YOU'LL FIND PEACE |

Subject: RE: theresa tooley From: banjoman Date: 03 Jan 12 - 06:00 AM We were privileged to have known her for a brief while thanks to Dave Thomas, alas also departed, and always remember her bringing the house down in Ludlow with her Lion Tamers Song. Wonderful Lady and very much missed |

Subject: RE: theresa tooley From: Bat Goddess Date: 03 Jan 12 - 08:47 AM I barely knew her; met her only once. So I not only mourn her, but I mourn that I never had the opportunity to know her better. Quite a lady, quite a singer. Linn |

Subject: RE: theresa tooley From: Charley Noble Date: 03 Jan 12 - 08:48 AM nutty- Do record that song when you are able to do it. I would look forward to hearing it. I only met Theresa at one Getaway but she certainly made a powerful impression. Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: theresa tooley From: Deckman Date: 03 Jan 12 - 04:44 PM I hope that this is not an "in-delecate" question, but ... can someone tell me of the circumstances of her death? Thanks ... bob(deckman)nelson |

Subject: RE: theresa tooley From: GUEST,AEOLA Date: 03 Jan 12 - 05:10 PM I will always remember Theresa & Bill |
|
Subject: RE: theresa tooley From: nutty Date: 03 Jan 12 - 05:58 PM Deckman - Theresa died from complications brought about by Motor Neurone Disease which had robbed her of her voice and the ability to move independently. A cruel disease and a sad end for such a vibrant person. |

Subject: RE: Remembering theresa tooley From: Ebbie Date: 04 Jan 12 - 01:44 PM I met Theresa only at one Getaway but I too shall never forget her. There is one memory that still makes me laugh- Amos strumming away on his guitar and Theresa shouting to the group: "Anybody got a song to go with that beat?" Thanks for the memories, Theresa. |

Subject: RE: Remembering theresa tooley From: r.padgett Date: 06 Jan 12 - 04:43 AM Yes it is a another yearly beginning I and my old mate John Booker knew Theresa and Bill Tooley for many years at countless festivals such as Fylde, Saddleworth, Whitby and places where singing songs unaccompanied and in harmony with friends was the most important thing ~ a pint and a good laugh Along with the passing of many old friends maybe a time for reflection. Colin Kemp, Theresa, Johnny Silvo spring to mind god bless them all and the good things they did to make life pleasant Ray |

Subject: RE: Remembering theresa tooley From: GUEST Date: 06 Jan 12 - 10:53 AM Dear Theresa, such a belting voice. Died on my birthday too. Whenever I'm singing "Bully in the Alley" I think of her... "Help me Bob...!" Alan |
