That must be SO NICE! I love to hear my dad whistle or just hum. It always brings a peaceful feeling to me.

Fabulous quilt. The name you've given it is so fitting. Your dad sounds like a wonderful person. I'm sure he'll enjoy sweet dreams under your beautiful quilt.

Thank you for sharing your quilt and a bit of his story. A great start to my day!

Your Dad sounds like a great person..As a 5 time cancer survivor you can tell him his music is appreciated by "his" chemo buddies. I wish I had something to distract me for a few hours from the cancer and all its uglies.
As a Christian his gospel music would have been such a blessing. What a blessing those chemo patients have in you Dad! Oh, by the way I love the quilt and the story about you Dad.
