Now For Something Completely Different…And Poignant
Among the surprises in Sunday’s Academy Awards show was Lady Gaga’s great “Sound Of Music” medley, and Tim McGraw singing what is in essence, Glenn Campbell’s good bye song to his family and the world.
Glenn was diagnosed with Alzheimers in 2011 and has been slowly slipping away into one of the cruelest of all maladies. I hope you’ll listen closely to the lyrics and enjoy the video of a true great and his travels through this fragile life. Enjoy and share! -Bobby Ellerbee

My family has been afflicted with this horrible disease. I lost a beloved aunt to it years ago and I have another one going through it right now. I have to admit that that song was one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard and I shed a couple of tears. Thanks for sharing it again.
