As a cellist who no longer can play due to cancerous tumors in my spine, I know the power music can have for the human condition. Your arrangement is beautiful , powerful, and heart-wrenching. Thanks for having the grace to share this with us. God Bless . 🙏

    Gary and Mac: What a joyous piece of music. I just now read the Parade article that I clicked off Yahoo...which I rarely do but I love Gary's work. I wish I could have helped or met you Mac. I just got DX at the end of March with breast cancer...what a blow. The next day the owner of my place of 24 yrs said he was selling and I had to leave. I have NO family...I lost my dad May 2013 and I suffer every day without him. I don't even care about the cancer, and I think about how lucky you are to have wonderful family and friends and I would trade anything to have that. I know you brought joy to your family and your music will live on. I wish I could hug you all.

    Mac was very inspiring. This is inspiring. I lost my husband to cancer three years ago and my life all but stopped when his did. Seeing this young man realize his dream in the midst of his pain is one of the most encouraging and brave things I've witnessed in a while. Thank you for sharing it. I, personally will have him in my mind and the family in my prayers as I try to rediscover my own purpose in this life I've been given.

    Mac, what a beautiful, soothing voice you have. Us most enjoyable thing to you and your dad talk and joke around. Gary, it was great listening to you going to the VA and talking with the vets with your cast and listening to their stories so your movies were based upon what they heard From each of them. My heartfelt sympathies to the entire Sinise Family on losing your precious Mac to cancer. I listen to the most current one first and so enjoyed his music and harmonica playing. I could visualize him playing the harmonica and continuing writing new music with us, magnificent band and orchestra of those who passed sharing their love of music with him. Thank you for doing these podcasts and I've gotten to know both of you through them. God bless SINISE foundation For honoring these veterans who have given all to keep us safe and free. Betty Gordon, Iowa My three brothers served a total of 102 years and one National Guard! Two had 40 years plus in the army Guard and the other one 22 years and the air guard. None of them went to war. One other son so did go to Iraq for 9 to 12 months and survived.
