My wife and I danced to this beautiful melody at every weekly school-sponsored dance, from the time we were teenagers. Through the years, my bride and I continued to hold each other close, as we danced at her high school reunions. About three years ago, she contracted Parkinsonism Lewy Body dementia. She passed away this May, just one month short of our 49th wedding anniversary. Now, I listen to Unchained Melody, with tears in my eyes, and a broken heart.

Please tell those close to you how much you love and appreciate them. Because, no matter how many times you may say it, in the end, it won’t have been enough.

May God bless you!
