Meet Me at the River

This video was taken less than an hour after Paw Paw passed away. It was a beautiful moment as some of the family gathered around his bedside to pray and sing one of his favorite songs "Meet Me at the River". I'll never forget it.

I know this was an emotional time but to me that was beautiful. I feel like I have been sort of obsessed with Pawpaw. He is all I can think about.I pulled out my Fiddler on Roof vinyl and put it up on my fireplace mantle and draped Pawpaws tie around it as a sort of shrine. I never knew how awesome and how many great things he did. I know what he has done for me...but I came away from Elberta feeling so inspired to do great things. I want to be just like my Pawpaw.

Reminds me of the song sung at PawPaw's father's funeral, Shall We Gather At The River.
