Finally!!!!! I found it!!!! This song was used on my daughters video for her furneral. She died at age thirty eight, breast cancer. She left two little boys, ages three and eight. Her name is Pamela and she loved her kids soooooo much and cried when she found out she wasn't going to live to raise them. She didn't want to leave them behind. But God chose to take her anyway, I guess He has better plans for her. She was so gorgeous, blonde and sweet. Everyone loved her. Geri, from Florida
