  Great suggestions they are going to use several of them. Mark, the piano player in the church will be playing that same song. Beautiful song.

Sorry to hear about your brother.  Lost my 50 year old sister a few years back.  Way too young.  Any way, "Clinging To A Saving Hand"  Ms. Connie Smith.

Ya I love that song also bubby, of course I love most anything by Lynyrd Skynyrd . I know the spelling look wrong but that's how they spell it.  ;)

Ralph Stanley - a bluegrass and country legend, has a LOT of hymns that could be included in the list.  Sorry about your loss, but I am certain he is going to a better place.

Could not tell you who sang it "If heaven wasn't so far away" still plays on the radio - it ain't that old.

If he wasn't Religious and you wanted to lighten the moment, this one is in my Funeral request; John Prine, "Please Don't Bury Me In that Cold Ground".


Hahaha actually playing this at my mother's funeral when her time comes...she made me promise.

I want The Promitory  from Last of the Mohicans at mine.

A Simple Man by Skynard sets me staring into space most times reflecting.

drink a beer, it sounds hokey but it depends on the gathering. i sang it last month at my friends memorial but it really resonated for him. 'cant make old friends' by dolly and kenny is is nice too. 'the dance' by garth brooks. 'youll be there' by george strait. 'jim' by the highway men.    God be with you.
