I wrote and recorded this song in 2001 for Mom's 75th B-day.  The picture is her at 80 having fun with bubble wrap. On 6-23-12 it was used as part of a slideshow at her memorial service.

You're the best, Mom.  Always in my heart!

02 I Remember When - Remaster

Written from my mother's perspective, I wrote this for my parents 50th anniversary.  It describes their "honeymoon" move from Boulder, Colorado to Castro Valley, California in 1946.  With both of them gone now, I find myself reflecting on their lives and their journey together.

10 Wedding Song - Remaster

"Early Don"  1969  - Soft Night Breezes, Time Has Come, Little Girl, From The Shadows, Goodbye.  OK...this is the old stuff.  1969...19 years old...first lost love... wrote five songs...joined the Army!  These songs were all recorded in 1969 on a portable cassette recorder.  One shot, all flaws included.  The picture is of a band I was with in 1969 (different music) .  I'm top middle in the double breasted jacket and hat.  Might be good for a laugh if you remember the time.   ~Don Hertlein
