For several years I have wanted to make a video of Lynda's pictures using the song "Taking You Home" by Don Henley. I even made some progress by assembling some of my favorite photographs into a box. Some of these were the pictures we used in Lynda's photo collage for visitation. Something more pressing always came along and I'd put the pictures back with plans to return soon.
After Lynda's death, there was nothing more pressing than to create the video that has been living in my heart for 39 years. We added a short portion of Michael W. Smith's "Trilogy: Entertaining Angels Unaware" to complete Lynda's journey to her forever home. We have emailed the publishers of the musical artists for permission to use their music in our video tribute to Lynda. Someone wrote directions on google of how to do it and they received permission back within a day and it was free. Pray that we too are blessed by the artists allowing us the rights to continue to use the music and show Lynda's video tribute on You Tube.
Click on the link below. It is about 8 minutes long and I will have to warn you at the end of the video it shows Lynda in ICU. The little video within the video was made right after we had removed the vent and a zillion tubes. Her arms were out of restraints so she could play with her favorite toy. We found it incredible that even in her condition she still found comfort in her favorite toy. Shortly after the video was made we moved Lynda upstairs to hospice where she slept peacefully with pain medications.
