My son died in October 2019, and this song makes my heart feel a little peaceful. I thank you for sharing it.

[@pattenpatti]

I play this song every year since I first heard it and I post a tribute to my Mum at Christmas. I know these are the words that she would be saying to me. This year I lost the lady that was like a Mum to me, a lady that came into my life after my Mum passed away so now I have lost both beautiful ladies. I played it tonight for both of them. Thank you for this song it means so much to me

[@bobbierigney1972]

This is so special, my dad was born on Christmas Day 1912. He died on Mother’s Day May 14, 1979 & my mom died May 14, 1989. I have saved this so I can play it on Christmas. Thanks for the comfort it brings.

This year, my dad has been gone as many years as he lived. He embodied the spirit of the season, and as a long-time Santa, I know so many children in Heaven were sure they heard Santa’s sleigh taking off. God bless you all on your upcoming tour!

Thanks for the amazing song Ryan. Its not Christmas yet but it was supposed to be my first Christmas with my dad in about four years although he died in May. This amazing and beautiful song helps. Thank you. I'm so sorry you lost your dad, and I hope it gets easier in time.

[@ZeldaRoseSongbook]

This was just the kind of song I needed. This is the tenth Christmas I've spent without my father and the first without my maternal grandmother; hearing this song reminds me that they're close.

[@marieeireandbreizh3900]

[@deannam3886]

Thank you for sharing this with us. I too lost my dad this year along with an aunt. This makes me feel a little closer to them. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

[@bettyziska8932]

Appreciate this, lost Daddy 12/10/01, Keith my husband 1/5/13, and Mom 1/1/15. The firsts are the hardest but eventually it does hurt a little less and the good memories stay in front and the bad move further back.

[@tiffanywright1051]

I just lost my grandfather last week so the song helps.

[@paulaandlloydlamb5516]

This beautiful song has helped me and others I've shared it with to be a little less sad about those we have lost over the past few years. As much as our loved ones are missed, this song makes it a little easier to go on. Thank you.

[@Katie_Jo_21]

This was the first song I heard from you in 2007-08'. The old original recording that is probably gone to the interwebs due to much better production later hehe. But my family (and now so many others) knew that you had a creative spark that should be heard by others. Keep writing, I know your dad is beyond proud. 🤗

[@caseybates256]

Aw I love how Neil has the elf hat :)

[@caroljasnosz9654]

Ryan, thanks for posting this as I missed the first part of this song on StageIt due to technical difficulties. Beautiful song and tribute to your Dad. Your Dad and Mum sure did a superb job of raising a wonderful man. My prayers are with you and your family on this Christmas week-end. Lots of love to all of you.

[@emilyolsen3916]
