Makenzie’s Last Harmonys


If you know me well, you know first that my oldest daughter, Makenzie, died in a car accident in 2009. Today, she would’ve celebrated 31 years of earthly life.

Part of who we are as a family is the gift of music. We exercised that gift all of the time, even casually. In celebration of her gift, here’s a video of us “trying” to sing the Star-Spangled Banner.

Peace!

I love my family, music, writing and the Minnesota Vikings!

  3. Touched our hearts, deeply. A fond memory of Makenzie and the beautiful rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. More families should sing this together. We miss, Kenny and I, all of you and Makenzie made her precious mark in the world. God Bless you all.
