This dance is dedicated to my friend and fellow dancer Janet Wood from College Station, Texas, who passed away this past year. It is also dedicated to all of our Texas line dancers who have passed away this year. It has been a difficult year for our Texas line dance community. However, as many have said in regard to these past fellow dancers: We can dance in peace knowing they are dancing in Heaven. As we dance here, we can only imagine them still dancing along with us, but in a better place with perfect music.
