Seven years ago today, my grandmother, Mary Rose Albina Ballard Lyvers, passed away. She is an incredible source of inspiration for myself and countless others, and her legacy lives on eternally through our family. There are so many things that she taught me, but even more important is the way that she made me feel, and that is what I sought to encapsulate with this song.
Since her passing, the many ups-and-downs of life have continued to unfold, but there are still moments when I am undeniably reminded of her presence and a calming blanket of warmth surrounds me. Strength and Love are two words that most quickly come to mind when I think of this woman, and it is with grateful joy that I accept my own responsibility to carry on with strength and love in her honor.
