Andy Williams died this week.
His song "Moon River" and his TV show were part of the backdrop of my childhood.
His passing reminds me I have been around a long time. His passing takes me back to my childhood, a time so very different than my life now. His passing makes me think of my father. I picture him singing "Moon River." When I was a kid, if there was a song playing, my dad was singing.
Don't get me wrong. I am not looking back with sadness, it's more of a fondness. Fondness for a simpler and more innocent time of my life. I wouldn't want to go back, but for just a few moments, it's kind of nice to reminisce.
