Choreographer’s NOTE:
I was asked to choreograph a dance for Delaware’s Grief Awareness Week.
The dance was to be taught throughout the week and the month of November 2012.
This offer/suggestion came shortly after unexpectedly losing a very good friend and fellow dancer from Washington, Jim Asher.
I hadn’t written a dance in well over a year and decided it “must” be time.
I had several songs to choose from but decided that this was the one for ‘me’. The song is beautiful and moving. It has helped me keep those wonderful memories of Jim, his hugs and his big smile close at heart.
The more I dance it and teach it, the happier I am that I decided to take this special honor on.
Thank you, Lee Anderson, for asking me to be a part of Delaware’s Grief Awareness Week.
This Dance is for You, Jim!
