My mother died suddenly in 2001.
She and I were best freinds.
She was a singer who used to sing "My Buddy" to me when I was young.
This CD and cover were composed by me as gift to my family in her memory.
This is my mother as she appeared in 1954.


Now, it's my turn to dedicate My Buddy to her:

My Buddy


Life is a book that we study
Some of its leaves bring a sigh
There it was written by a buddy
That we must part, you and I

Nights are long since you went away
I think about you all through the day
My buddy, my buddy
Nobody quite so true

Miss your voice, the touch of your hand
Just long to know that you understand
My buddy, my buddy
Your buddy misses you

(Instrumental Break)

Miss your voice, the touch of your hand
Just long to know that you understand
My buddy, my buddy
Your buddy misses you

Your buddy misses you


Seems everybody from the old guard recorded My Buddy.
My favorite and mother's favorite was Dinah Shore with Andre Previn.
I couldn't find a clip of it.

So here's Bobby Darin.
Happy Mother's Day mama.
