• Patti from Anoka, Mn.Every time I hear this song, I still cry just like a Baby and I am 62! I lost My Mom when I was 24 yrs. old. My Sister called me up the day before Thanksgiving & told me, Mom is getting Worse (she had Breast Cancer), and she wants to see you, & Minnesota was getting the biggest snowfall we have had since 1984, I made it to Hinckley, MN., from Virginia, MN., which I still had about another hour to go, but they closed down 35W, which back then in Hinckley, they only had 1 Motel, 2 Pay phones, 1 Gas Station & 1 Bar, it's alot different now, cuz they have one of the biggest Casinos in the State of Minnesota, but I had to wait in line for about an hour to use the Pay Phone outside, then found out when I called Home, that Mom had already passed away, I didn't Make It, if they hadn't closed down 35W, I would of kept going, cuz I always told her I would Always Be there for Her! I NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO SAY GOOD BYE!
  She was not only My Mom, but My Best Friend!! She knew I had a hard time dealing with death, then to find out in the middle of no where in a Snowstorm, My Mom was GONE!! Some Guy behind me in line at the phone, said to me I didn't mean to be nosey, but I overheard, and asked me if he could buy me dinner, or anything. We had dinner together, he told me he was going to school for Cancer Dr., and he bought me breakfast the next morning, cleared off my car, asked me if I wanted him to follow me home so i made it, I told him NO, he didn't have to do that cuz he was going to St. Paul, I was going to Southwest Mpls., but I got his Name & Address to send him a Thank You Card, and of course I never left My Car all the way home, but the piece of Paper he wrote down his Name & Address on was gone, no where to be found. I left My Apt., in Virginia, with .05 cents in my pocket, the clothes on my back and an Amoco Credit Card, so there was No Place I could of Lost His Name & Address!!
  I know Mom sent down an Angel to watch over me & be with Me that Night, but this Song of Blake Shelton hits Home, cuz I NEVER GOT TO SAY GOOD BYE!
  I LOVE YOU SO MUCH MOM!! I'M SO SORRY! I LOVE YOU!!
• Zachary from Mcgehee ArkansasI lost my dad the 11th of September unexpected, so I never had the chance to say goodbye, It's hard to say that I lost my dad at 18, it's been a rough road to walk but this song helps me because it reminds me I'm not the only one who's been down this road.
