Went to a funeral of a buddy's father the other day- a veteran of the Navy. A real character and so much of the funeral was light hearted.
But when the young sailor finished playing Taps on her bugal, I don't think there was a dry eye in the room. I've never heard someone with such skill play a bugal as she did. A simple tune that has a lot of meaning and at an emotional time, but her pure sincere talent was so gentle and captivating that it took the song to another level. It was truly a treasured experience. And the family commented the same.
I wish I could have told her so, but she and her comanding officer were gone.
