Coming home
Del Kuhn speaks about Dave
and the motorcycle club
Vicky plays Cab Driver
and Pastor Jim from Good Shepherd Presbyterian Church enjoys the reactions
Those of us who went with Dave to the Phoenix Club every Thursday always waited for
Jan to direct the band to play Cab Driver just for Dave
Pastor Jim likes the tune... There were some wet eyes in the gathering afterwords
Cab Driver, drive by Mary's place
I just wanna chance to see her face
Don't stop the meter, let it race
Cab Driver, drive by Mary's place
Cab Driver, once more round the block
Never mind the ticking of the clock
I only wish we could have a talk
Cab Driver, once more round the block
Cab Driver, once more down the street
There's a little place we used to meet
That`s where I laid my future at her feet
Cab Driver, once more down the street
Cab Driver, wait here by the door
Perhaps I'll hold her in my arms once more
Then thing's will be just like before
Cab Driver, wait here by the door
Cab Driver, better take me home
I guess that I was meant to be alone
I hope God sends me a love one of my own
Cab Driver, better take me home
Cab Driver, better take me home!
Many wore race car or patriotic shirts in loving memory of Dave
Remember - Death ends a life, not a relationship. - Jack Lemmon
Pastor Jim was fantastic.... He connected with the crowd making all feel at ease... Thank you
Remember -There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, and people we can't live without but have to let go. - Author Unknown
