Light a Candle
Remembering Jeff

**********************************************************************************

Light a Candle

[It would be so great if everyone who lights a candle would also make May 29th the day they exercise their Golden Promise. Lighting candles and sharing how much we miss him are very comforting and inspiring, and the conscious act of doing something supremely humane is the best way for him to be remembered I can think of. Please, share that with us, too. Bless you, all. MG]

JEFF BUCKLEY-VIDEO TRIBUTE
BY SUE CILLIAN

****************************************************************************

“This is a tribute to the talented Jeff Buckley. Jeff was truly a genius. The music industry is missing a huge element. Jeff is the only artist that can reduce me to tears with the melodies and lyrics of his music. His music moves through my soul and haunts me. It’s like a penetrating force. I get lost in his words. Such a beautiful and talented man. I miss him so much. He is my all time favorite musician!” ~ Sue Cillian
