 A musical tribute to my Mother 2008
Back to Full Blog  

As I was growing up, my mother loved this kind of music - and the vinyls were played on a player just like this one!



My mother loved June Carter:



My mother loved anyone who could yodel - she would have loved this young lady!

Evening Ron, what a flash from the past, June Carter! and she can actually sing too! who knew? I only knew her as Johnny Cash's wife.

It always surprised me that June was so overshadowed by Loretta Lynn and others. She was just so adorable and she was the best thing that EVER happened to Johnny Cash.

Sherry,

June Carter was always credited by Johnny Cash and others for sobering Johnny up and keeping on track. She had a strong religious background from the Carter family.

Glad you enjoyed her.

cheers

June,

Glad you liked it - somehow the songs got messed up and it is now corrected - you might want to come back and listen to the other two songs

Hope you & June have a wonderful day.

I am with you, Bella, I didn't know anyone still did this - she sure is a cute, gutsy young lady.

I hope you are having a relaxing day

What a nice tribute to your Mom! I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't really ever have an interest in June Carter Cash until I saw the movie "Walk the Line"....she was one pretty amazing lady to have stuck by Johnny Cash the way that she did!

Thanks for coming by.

I haven't seen the movie - obviously now I should get it and watch it

Ron,
Loved your post. I grew up listening to the Opry...June Carter was a rare comic talent and a gifted singer. The little "cowboy sweetheart" yodeler was fantastic.

L.Cat,

Thanks for coming by - with all the stuff going on in your life - this is a pleasant visit.

I am glad you liked the music. June and I have tickets for the Opry in September.

That little girl has awesome stage presence!

peace

I hope June got her day as a mom. I loved what you did with the videos. I remember them, as only yesterday past. Your mom sounds like mine, in the way that they wanted to keep it pure.

I hope this was a good day for all of you. There are many blessings in the way you treat a person.

Keep the Faith~ Cuddle

Cuddle,

You will have to ask June how her day went

Church in the morning; then she has her little chaplaincy job at the retirement community (I went along), then dinner with friends whose son lives at the southend of the state and didn't come home for the weekend.

in all a good day I think.

peace

Wow I'm embarrassed to say I think this is the first time I have ever seen June Carter and haven't heard yodeling like that since the Sound of Music. Thanks, a great music tribute to your Mom.

Summerrayne,

Yes, great memories! one of best ways to heal grief is to focus on the beautiful memories we have of our loved ones.
