In 1995 my marriage broke down in a bad manner leaving me at 47 with two young children 8 and 10. As I lived in a family farm house I was afraid i would loose it. My job as a laboratory technologist was very stressful and i was being harrassed by a lab bully. Any way long story short your song 'hallelujah the great storm is over" was a light that got me through many hard nights. I played it over and over and have requested it to be played at my funeral. Thank you for those words!
Happy to be of service, Maxine.
