Watching Whitney Houston videos from her funeral, Kevin Costner’s Eulogy was lovely and human. I am so saddened by her loss. Saturday afternoon February 12th, I turned on the radio in the car Whitney Houston song was on. I was thinking, there is someone that I hope rises for the ashes to returns again, because her voice is gods glorious gift to the world. She is truly one of the most beautiful voices that ever lived. Finding out later that day Whitney Houston had passed.
As I write this I am listening to all “I will always love you” crying.
Personally, This is my favorite verse ‘from “I will always love you” mainly because before I met my husband I would pray, using her words and it continues to be … This is my hope for my husband and children:
I hope life treats you kind,
And I hope you have all you’ve dreamed of
And I wish to you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love
As for my memories of Whitney Houston, As young girl, singing in the chorus I loved her. I knew would I never have Whitney Houston talent but she touched me. I wanted to sing with the passion she had. When I hear to her songs I think she did not scream her high notes they are just pure beauty and strength. I will introduce my daughter and explain why she is one of the great singer that ever lived. Her memory and voice will live on in me.
Sorry for Whitney Houston’s family’s loss and may she find peace.
I agree that Whitney’s voice was a gift. As a teen I loved her and was a huge fan. She will always be remembered for one of the greatest voices ever. It saddens me why she died. If only her voice, fame, and family was enough.
I agree, Whitney’s voice is one to remember. I LOVE the lyrics you listed too. I choke up every time I hear it, although, as much as I adored Whitney’s version of the song, I think there are others of hers I prefer more. I liked Dolly Parton’s version a bit more, I think it is more pure. Plus, kudos to her for writing it. I loved Whitney in the Body Guard and I wanted to be her. Also liked so many of her songs.
Whenever I think of Whitney I think of the song I will always love you and of course the movie Bodyguard. Her gift of song was truly amazing. I was very sad to hear of her passing.
Whitney Houston… I will always love you!!
