As my grandma was on her last few minutes of life in the hospital bed, surrounded by all of the family that she has held together for so long, her daughter (my aunt) started singing 'go rest high on that mountain', which was one of my grandmas favorites. Then the other daughters joined in. Eventually the whole room was filled with all of us singing this song for her, through tears and holding one another. She passed right after that. š„ŗšš I really wish that I had that moment on video. It was the most precious wholesome thing that has ever happened. I hope I never forget that memory.

Tears in Heaven MY two sons died in 1999 from the same wreck - (18 and 28) I am now 74 - I miss em so much. But the Lord just took my hand and took me through that valley! Feb of 2022 - my best friend passed - we rode our horses, decorated our homes, had so much fun. One year we rode our horses 1000 miles. Oh my! I know one day I'll see my boys and my very best friend. We'll walk by the river that we stood by, with a smile on our face, grace in our hearts, and singing Glory to the Lord Almighty... Glory to the Lord!

I just put down my 17 year old dog, Casper, few days ago. I'm still not ready to talk too much about him without crying, so I'll just say he was the best boy and ill miss him. I've been wandering around the house just remembering him. Been thinking of ways to honor his memory and even though I know its cheesey, I want to play something for him on guitar and this video helped me feel better and decide to do it (i was thinking of tears in heaven before this vid). Thank you, sorry for your loss, and I hope everyone has a great day. Hug your loved ones for me please. Love you Casper!

I can tell how much these songs mean to you. Music has such power. My son was kidnapped when he was 12 years old. I finally got him back home when he was 33 years old. I had him for 5 months, when he suddenly passed away at the age of 34. Life is so unfair. We played his favorite song. Somewhere over the rainbow by izzy. He has been gone a year now. I still think about him every day.

Our son died of sudden heart failure at 24 - he was out riding his bike - we never said good-bye. My wife ( MD ) has a very good way of describing grief that happened. It was like someone dropped an enormous weight on us. At first we were sure it would crush us. Over the past 10 years we have learned to carry that weight - it never goes away and it does not get less heavy but like in the physical world if you work at lifting and carrying weights you get better at. It is very hard work and sometimes you weaken and collapse again but you must go on.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. My wife died unexpectedly three weeks ago... we were laying in bed cuddling all night. In the morning, I woke up... and she didn't. I've been numb ever since. Hearing your words, and the great depth of your insight, has helped immensely. Thank you Michael for reaching out.

As my father lay dying at home where we took care of him we played Christian music all during the night while we waited for him to pass. When it happened in the morning he took a deep breath and was gone and I came to his bed to check him the song How Beautiful Heaven Must Be was playing by his favorite country singer George Jones. I feel it was his way of letting me know he was alright and not to cry for him because as a Christian I believe I will see him again one day

I lost my 37 y/o son unexpectedly a few weeks ago. This heart wrenching loss is really more than I can bear, I have endless days of tears. No one should bury their child. It is the indescribable worst nightmare, a thousand times worse than losing my parents, sibling, aunts or grandparents. I will never be the same, I will always be Kristoferās mother. Three songs we played, Tears in Heaven, sang by my husband while playing his guitar. My son was an avid Phish fan, attended more than 100 concerts. Our other children picked these two songs, they were so appropriate- please take a listen to Phish- I miss you and Phish - Waste (I want to waste my time with you). Kristofer was at the prime if his life after many very difficult struggles that most do not survive, he made it; a career he loved as a senior software programmer, bought a beautiful home on Lake Michigan 4 months before he passed away. He had one outstanding year after 15 years of struggle. Hundreds have told me since he passed away what an incredible person he was, loving, kind, hard working, a brilliant engineer, he helped so many with small things and big, he never talked about his good works. He didnāt seek recognition. I think God saw he struggled so, and gave him a year to enjoy the perfect life and then called his angel home. What were the lessons we were supposed to learn? Did people give him help when he really needed it? Many times they did not. As his mother and friend, I was there with him every step of the way, with nothing left unsaid between us, I love you and hugs every day. I am thankful for that. Maybe the lesson is for others who arenāt talking to their children, or helping when they really need it. Several of his friends talked to me at his funeral, as I silently wondered to myself āDid he really know how deeply I loved himā? Each of his many close friends quietly and privately said, āI want you to know Kristofer talked about you a lot, he loved you and said he knew you loved him so muchā. That question that kept circulated my brain, was being answered repeatedly by his different friends. I believe Kristofer was speaking to me through them. I did and always will until the end of my life love my beautiful son.

Mr. Michael,
I donāt know a thing about you. But tonight I was cruising on u tube and found you. The emotion you displayed is amazing. Youāve gained a new fan. What you had to say was remarkable. Being an older guy, 80 years, your description of the title of this u tube show caught my eye. I was blown away. Hopefully I can come up with my own list. Thank you so much..

"Don't just love others, love yourself. Don't just forgive others, forgive yourself." Wow. Just wow. Thank you Michael.
