Back in 2002 Bonnie Cooper experienced the unthinkable, she lost her mother and brother within 7 months of each other (can you imagine? either can I).
While making arrangements for the funeral she looked everywhere for music that would provide a fitting memorial to lay her loved ones to rest. Unfortunately, she didn’t find anything.
Knowing first hand that there was a need for this type of resource she decided to build her own memorial music site. Read the rest of this entry
If you are looking for another way to remember anyone who is not with us any longer, I have an idea.
Last year I wrote a song called “Minnesota Got Colder” and then with the help of some of my fans, we created a video in honor of those who are no longer with us. This year I wanted to expand on that even more.
First…
First, i am giving the song away for free through Memorial Day. Just visit this page and download it now.
When there, just click on “Free Download” under “Digital Track.”
Also, pease feel free to pass it on to anyone on Facebook, Twitter, your site, in your email, wherever.
Second…
I thought it would be great if you could share the name and/or a story about someone who is not with us today – if you are up to it.
Here is what I was thinking;
1) In the comments below the video, tell us who you will be remembering this Memorial Day. Maybe even share a story if you’d like.
2) Share this video with everyone you think would like to participate.

“Never Too Late is a kind of ‘every man’ record for the hard-working Joes who know that all you need to enjoy life is a good beer and the love of a good woman. Great words to live by. The album is also touching for its sincerity because of Corey’s ability to make the listener comfortable, whether it be from his asides or his laid back nature.” — Felicia Ceballos-Marroquin, RecordSpeak
