Greetings Family & Friends,
It's that time a year again when John and I work the annual Monterey Blues Festival. To promote Music Education in the local schools and it is also something that John and I hold dear to our hearts since we both are teachers. This will be our FIFTH year doing it. It's becoming an annual tradition in our household. It a chance for us to get away for the weekend and kick off the summer. This year we have a treat because the legendary BB King will be performing. So we both are super pumped about that. We hope you all are doing well.

Three Weeks Later & I Can Only Imagine
Good Evening All!
I can hardly believe that it has been THREE weeks since the passing of my GRANDMA. (My GRANDMA Toots or Tootsie or Claire). I was just thinking of the song that was presented to me on the day that my Grandma passed from the church (St. Andrews Presbyterian Church in Redondo Beach) that I attended the Sunday she passed. I remember to vividly what happened to me when she had passed. I went to make a last minute call to my Dad ask for a last minute status about my Grandma. And my Dad mentioned that she had passed at 5:27pm on June 1st. I was sitting in my seat in on the plane to head back to San Jose. And I was thinking of this song that I heard at church. And I remember saying to myself that I Can Only Imagine what it must have been like for my Grandma that was right on the edge of the steps before our Lord. And what he must be asking her. My Grandma was Jewish. I on unsure if she ever accepted our Lord but I do know that she died in Peace and that was my prayer when I was visiting her and being with my Mom. I ask you to continue to pray for my family during this time. It's been very hard on all of us.
I Can Only Imagine By Mercy Me
"I can only imagine what it will be like, when I walk by Your side...I can only imagine, what my eyes will see, when Your Face is before me!I can only imagine. I can only imagine.
Surrounded by Your Glory, what will my heart feel?Will I dance for you, Jesus? Or in awe of You, be still?Will I stand in Your presence, or to my knees will I fall?Will I sing 'Hallelujah!'? Will I be able to speak at all?I can only imagine! I can only imagine!
I can only imagine, when that day comes, when I find myself standing in the Son!I can only imagine, when all I will do, is forever, forever worship You!I can only imagine! I can only imagine!
Surrounded by Your Glory, what will my heart feel?
Will I dance for you, Jesus? Or in awe of You, be still?Will I stand in Your presence, or to my knees will I fall?Will I sing 'Hallelujah!'? Will I be able to speak at all?I can only imagine! Yeah! I can only imagine!
