Jackie, You are such a beautiful influence on everyone around you. I feel so blessed to have been able to sing for you! Every time conference came around I would wait so eagerly for the chance to sing again- the gorgeous music, the feel of the choir around me, the swell and emotion of the voices, and your smile and laugh.  We loved to joke and laugh, to work and sing, and bear our testimonies through our voices. I loved all of the music so much, but three come to my mind: How Great Thou Art, Come Come ye Saints, and This is the Christ. I absolutely sung with my whole heart each and every time, but these three brought tears to my eyes. I remember feeling completely choked up, finding it difficult to sing through them and seeing the same feeling mirrored in your eyes right back at us. Singing in the choir is a time out I take just for me, and an experience I will never forget. Thank you for all of your hard work (the MP3s prepared me perfectly for every practice),  for the goodies (they were always yummy!), the smiles, the laughs, the hard work....and the blessings. I found some youtube recording links of my favorite songs.

I can worship the Lord my God through beautiful music and love doing it! Love and Hugs,
Deanna Jones
