Rocks-Anne Paul
Bradenton, Florida
April 8, 1951 - June 10, 2023
Rocks-Anne is the daughter of my mother's 1st cousin, Lois. She passed away at age 73 after 7 years of Alzheimer's. My Cousin Bonnie and I went to her Memorial Service this past Saturday.
The church was beautiful, the music stirred my soul.
The first song the Pianist played was this one.
Piano music only HERE

Wow, what a church! It is gorgeous. I have never heard this hymn before. It must have been even more beautiful hearing it in that church.
What a beautiful church. I like the name Rocks-Anne. That's unusual.
Sorry for your loss she went too young. I've just been skipping through your posts. The traffic there looks horrendous. It is getting worse here too with more people pouring into Queensland, but nothing like you describe. I have a cousin Bonnie too. She turned 93 today. She lives in USA but not sure which state now. She lived in California for ages but I think she lives with her son or daughter now. She's a bit further away than your cousin Bonnie.

So sorry for your loss, RIP Rocks-Anne Paul.
The church is beautiful!
May her memory be a blessing.
Sorry for the loss of your friend/relative ♥
Beautiful church & music!
I will listen later..
What a magnificent sanctuary! It looks like something you might see in a European capital, doesn't it? I could see myself instinctively sitting up straighter, shoulders back.
Not since 2002 when I moved to Arizona have I heard that song. The band at my former church in Clearwater used to play that every Sunday. Thanks for the memories!
My sympathy to all of Rocks-Ann's loved ones. That is a beautiful hymn and one I have always liked.
A red door on a church that was quite a pleasant surprise

What a tragedy to get this terrible illness at such a young age. The church is so beautiful and the service, the music touched your heart and soul, that's so meaningful too. I'm sorry for your loss.
I haven't heard that song in years. Its so beautiful and I'm sure it was extra lovely in that magnificent church.
I'm glad you could go to the service too. It recharges the soul sometimes.

Sorry for your loss. That is a beautiful song.
Your 'cousin' was a very beautiful woman. I'm sorry a light has gone out on your life and i hope you found comfort in coming together with family for her memorial. Beautiful church.
My condolences on the passing of you family member, Rocks-Ann, and itb was good to read that you were able to attend the services with your cousin. It seems to be the time when loved ones and friends are passing away. The photo of Rocks-Ann was lovely.
She was way too young. 🥲. I love that hymn and the pictures of the church. Thank you.
That's very sad, hugs from all of us. The Church really is quite pretty.
