"The recent passing of two of my dearest friends, Mary Garcia, Choir Mother for the St. Cyril's Parish Choir and Coleen Zeizer, long time friend and vocal associate in the Cantori Domino Choral organization are memorialized in this piece. Chief Dan George captures with great poignancy the tenderness and hope for strength in the sorrow we experience for our dear ones that have moved on. The images in my mind of the stars, flowers and tears all contributing to a great silence are strong indeed. There is no need for survivors guilt. We simply carry on, knowing in our hearts that we have tacit approval from our very special, compassionate friends." -Dale Jergenson. Performance time: c. 2:20
