Lyr Req: From the rolling hills of Maine

"From the rolling hills of Maine to the sunny shores of Florida." Or something similar. Anyone recognize the song? No, not "Halls of Montezuma".

Trying to help a friend's daughter-in-law nail down a song which her 102-year-old grandmother wants played at her memorial service (June 21). It contains those lyrics. Maybe it is not a hymn.

This may be a stretch. In a review of singer-songwriter Rod MacDonald a reviewer writes:

"His 1999 songs collection "Into The Blue" contained material inspired by his then-recent relocation from New York City to the sunny shores of Florida."

The 102-year old grandmother is probably thinking of an older song.
