    Sarah has such a beautiful smile....
    Your video really captures her beauty and vitality, she lived her life to the fullest with you by her side.
    Adam, I am so sorry for you loss and I really hope your wish is granted.
    XOXO

    your video really touched me if you wouldn't mind this is my dedication to you two
    Pearl Jam - Light Years - Pinkpop 2000
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cdLSYjKpzA

    I've used hammers made out of wood
    I have played games with pieces and rules..
    I've deciphered tricks at the bar...
    But now you're gone,... I haven't figured out why...
    I've come up with riddles... and jokes about war...
    I've figured out numbers and what they're for...
    I've understood feelings.. and I've understood words...
    But how could you be taken away?...

    And wherever you've gone...and wherever we might go...
    It don't seem fair...today just disappeared...
    Your light's reflected now,... reflected from afar...
    We were but stones,... your light made us stars

    With heavy breath,... awakened regrets...
    Back pages and days alone that could have been spent,
    Together... but we were... miles apar...t
    Every inch between us becomes light years now...
    No need to be void,... or save up on life...
    You got to spend it all.....

    And wherever you've gone... and wherever we might go...
    It don't seem fair...you seemed to like it here...
    Your light's reflected now,... reflected from afar
    We were but stones,... your light made us stars

    And wherever you've gone... and wherever we might go...
    It don't seem fair...today just disappeared...
    Your light's reflected now,... reflected from afar...
    We were but stones,... your light made us stars

    So sorry for your loss. Wish you all the best and sincerely hope you'll hear Come Back at Wrigley! One of my favorites too.

    I am terribly sorry your wife passed away. "Come Back" eased some of the pain for me after I recently lost my GF. I hope the band plays "Come Back" for you, and if they do, I'll be singing with tears in my eyes.

    Cheers and best wishes,

    Hoosiers I'm so sorry . . . I can't even imagine how you feel . . . I'm sending you the biggest, warmest hug possible. I hope they play the song for you, and for anyone else going through something similar.
  • october22october22 Posts: 2,533
    I'm so sorry, buddy. Thank you for making and sharing that video. I'm happy to have seen her and her smile. I feel like I got to experience a bit of the warm person I can see she must have been. I'll be at the show and whether or not they play Come Back, you and Sarah will be in my thoughts. We're all thinking of you and here to help you get through in any way we can. My best to you -Jonathan

    no problem bud, I lost several loved ones in the last few years, and I thought your video was very well done and touched me deeply, I have to believe if any members of the band or their significant others see your video, that there is no way they won't play Come Back, and I love the song as well
  • annabellaqueenannabellaqueen Posts: 89
    I made the mistake of watching your youtube slideshow at work the other night. I teared up at my cubicle.

    I'm so sorry for your loss.

    Thank you for sharing the story of your beautiful wife in pictures and words.

    I too watched the video, thanks for sharing. She had a beautiful smile, I hope the song is played for you.

    Keeping it bumped up. Just reading through everyone's responses, I'm tearing up. Right not looking at the photo of my grandfather propped next to my tv. He was the person I've loved most in my life, and a year and half later it's only just bearable that I'll never see him again. Anyway, I turn to Other Side when trying to deal with loss.

    Hoosiers, I'll be thinking this Memorial Day of you and your wife. If you need anything, just ask.

    Man....I've watched that beautiful video twice now and I teared up like a baby both times.

    I really hope the guys get notice of this and they play Come Back for Sarah at Wrigley.

    I am so very sorry for your loss. Here's hoping that they play "Come Back" in memory of your beautiful Sarah.

    So sorry for your loss. I couldn't begin to imagine how I'd feel if I lost my wife.

    I wish you peace, strength and clarity in this difficult time.

    I really hope they play Come Back for you. I can't imagine what youre experiencing it was distressing enough just reading about your wife. Really puts things in perspective.

    Once again, I hope they play it for you
