26. Sorry to hear that.

My Mom was 82 when she passed too and also a West Virginia coal miners daughter. We played that song for her at her funeral since she loved it so much.

Mom's passing isn't easily accepted. She died 10 years ago and there are days, still, when I think I have to call her to ask a question about something or other.
