Sad Update

Mary of Peter, Paul & Mary passed away today. This is from their website:

"Mary Travers passed away today. After successful recovery from leukemia through a bone marrow/stem cell transplant, Mary succumbed to the side effects of one of the chemotherapy treatments."

Peter, Paul & Mary is my favorite folk band (possibly even my favorite any kind of band). Their song Autumn To May is where I got my blog/etsy/online-in-general name. My dad used to sing it to me (along with many of their other songs) when I was little. Now I sing it to my kids.



~ Mary Allin Travers (November 9, 1936 – September 16, 2009) ~

Good-bye Mary. We'll miss you and your music. :(

All my trials lord, soon be over.

I had a little book was given to me,
And every page spelled liberty.
All my trials lord, soon be over.... Read More

If religion were a thing that money could buy,
The rich would live and the poor would die.
All my trials lord, soon be over.

Too late my brothers, too late, but never mind.
All my trials lord, soon be over.

There is a tree in paradise
The pilgrims call it the tree of life
All my trials lord, soon be over.

Too late my brothers, too late, but never mind.
All my trials lord, soon be over.
All my trials lord, soon be over.
