Rodi by Sharon Jones / Mommy

I hope you’ve gone to heaven. It’s the place where you belong. You have been my guiding light through times of darkness and despair. You have been my conscience when I began to go astray. You have been there for me in so many ways through the last fifteen years. I hope I did our friendship justice in the last 15 minutes of your life. I’m sorry I couldn’t whisper “goodbye”. I had to hold back the tears. But I whispered it in my heart and I know you can hear that. That’s how you’ve always listened to me. I love you.
Till we meet again, Rodi-Girl.

 

I'll sing to you,
Rodi
