For my Dad and I–music has always been our language. For years growing up, I borrowed CDs from his seemingly endless collection. As I got older, I started to burn CDs of songs I loved or recorded for him. It was our connection. Th only thing stronger thing stronger than our shared love of music is the courage and strength he instilled in me. I am my father’s girl. So I dedicate “My Girl” by The Temptations in honor of every Father-Daughter dance we spun around to it at, every concert on the green we sang the words at, and every time it played on one of our CDs. Music is one of my great loves in this world and it took a truly loving father to show me the notes. Love you, dad. – Katherine Sherrill, MT-BC
