    almost any rendition of Just a Closer Walk With Thee
    example:
    <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/arMMw2oiU14&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/arMMw2oiU14&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

    or
    How Great Thou Art
    <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YHrM7LHfJFc&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YHrM7LHfJFc&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

    Those may not be the best renditions; you'll need to look around.

    i dont want to sound harsh or dumb or whatever.

    did she die of natural causes (being old)?




    I think it's easier to pick out songs if that is the case.

    Maybe for a picture montage? I've thought of it...

    Time Of Your Life - Green Day

    Another turning point;
    a fork stuck in the road.

    Time grabs you by the wrist;
    directs you where to go.


    So make the best of this test
    and don't ask why.

    It's not a question
    but a lesson learned in time.


    It's something unpredictable
    But in the end it's right.
    I hope you had the time of your life.



    So take the photographs
    and still frames in your mind.

    Hang it on a shelf
    In good health and good time.

    Tattoos of memories
    and dead skin on trial.

    For what it's worth,
    it was worth all the while.


    It's something unpredictable
    but in the end it's right.
    I hope you had the time of your life.

    (music break)

    It's something unpredictable
    but in the end it's right.
    I hope you had the time of your life.

    It's something unpredictable
    but in the end it's right.
    I hope you had the time of your life.
