I'm 42 years old and lost my father. He was driving home and had a heartattack. He pulled off to the side of the road. Waitting for help but the cars just passed him by. He knew he wan't going to make it because the highway patrol found him with his bible in his hand and slumped down in the seat. He always said that he would never try to keep driving if something like this happen because he wouldn't want to harm someone else because he wrecked. The saddest part is. He was about 500 feet from the hospital(of course he couldn't get there.) He had been in the service so he had a military funeral. And what Carrie said is so true. As you walk through it all you think it is a dream and when the guns go off it does seem like you are getting shot in the heart. She has given meaning to so many that have lost someone with this song. I along with many others thak her for that.
