I was at Byron’s and that hit home with me. It was years ago but I look back and wonder how I ever kept everything together. We do what we must for our loved ones.

Appreciate your comment, Becky. And, yes, it’s so true that people just push through for their loved ones. It’s quite remarkable. Thanks so much for making it out this weekend and being a supporter of live music in Iowa.

Helped my parents last year when Dad had a stroke & Mom a hip fracture...Dad's funeral was a day before their 70th wedding anniversary. Mom's home & doing great, turning 93 in May.

Thx for your music & eloquent lyrics. And reminding me I need to get back to Byrons sometime!

Appreciate you sharing your story, Tim. Glad to hear your Mom is doing well and you all have fond memories of your Dad and a lasting marriage. They made it to 70 years in my book plus an eternity.

So eloquently stated. Jen handled everything with respect and grace. I know she is grateful for the support you were able to give and I also know it never feels like you’re doing enough. I have the utmost respect for you both ❤️
