ME AND THE BLUES - Rory feek (with Vince Gill)

[@majoroldladyakamom6948]

Somehow, the UGH usually comes across as disapproval in YT comments. Might want to edit your comment and RE-POST. Please? UGH! See how that reads? Like Rory is whining/complaining. Your message comes across as, "UGH! What do you have to complain about, Rory? At least you had her for awhile., , , "

[@cmel7541]

That is merely your opinion. Clearly not everyone thinks the same, as evidenced by the replies. Also, you weren’t even accurate in your statement. “Ugh,” and UGH!” are very different.

Oh my heart just breaks for him. When he reached out his hand for hers to pray I lost it😭😭 and the Valentine's Card on the table said UNTIL on it. Oh Rory, God bless you, you and Joey have a beautiful love story and the two of you share a bond of love so strong that even in death it can't be broken. Your beautiful Joey sees you and is beyond proud of you. Your love will forever belong to this beautiful lady. Like your wedding rings say"BOUND BY GOD FOREVER" you will be with your Gorgeous bride again. Until then you have the next best thing.
