For me, Memorial Day is a day to remember loved ones we have lost. On May 15,2014 I lost my brother Rudolph Raymond Aversa so I am dedicating this volume to Rudy.
Though my heart is sad I know that my brother would want me to carry on as if he were still here because he is still here in spirit. I have added three songs to the end of this volume in his memory.
A special thanks to all of the members of the KREW who helped make this volume possible. God Bless You All and God Bless My Brother Rudy.
