Description
This is dedicated to my big brother who went home in the 'Arms of the Angels' this past August. This is the first holiday season that he is not with us. I know that he has just moved on, but we miss him. He wanted this song at his funeral. It was played.
Sarah McLachlan -
In the Arms of the Angels
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
For the break that will make it OK
There's always some reason to feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction or a beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the Angel far away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the Angel; may you find some comfort here
You're in the arms of the Angel; may you find some comfort here

Remarkable as it may seem, it wasn't my brother who was sick. It was my oldest brother. He had lung cancer and we didn't know it.

Randee... you have brought me so many smiles. Your wit and your heart are both beautiful to behold. I read your words here and now I have to type through my tears. I won't pretend to know your heartache... I'll just say that you have shown me an inner strength and a sweetness to which I can only hope to aspire. And it renders me speechless in my humility. I'm so very sorry for the loss of your brother.
