I danced in the morning
While the moon lay low
I danced at the sunrise
While the winds began to blow
I danced in the noontide
When it started slow to snow
And I danced in the evening
In the sunset’s glow
Dance, dance,
Wherever you may go;
Dance and spread love
To everyone you know.
Dance, dance with a joyful heart –
Go, dance now… it’s a good time to start.
Marcelle Zufferey is dancing in Heaven with her husband, Antoine, today!
Today is Antoine’s birthday!! He went to his eternal home a couple of decades ago. Marcelle suffered this last couple of years from that awful disease, Alzheimer’s, that robs us of our minds – our memories. But, right to the end, she was that beautiful, blue-eyed mother who gave her children everything they needed for a full life. She is the mother of our 1980-81 AFS student, Christian Zufferey, and his sister, Sylviane, who lived with us for a year in 1983-84. Our daughter DeDe, married their first cousin, Andre’. That’s why DeAna is a Swiss citizen and our 3 grandsons were born and raised in that beautiful country. We owe Marcelle a deep debt of gratitude! Our hearts go out to the Zufferey and Solioz families today, as we mourn their loss. But we know they are faith believers … and they recognize God’s perfect timing in this earthly departure.I can play a Swiss polka today … and celebrate the reunion of Marcelle and Antoine.
Dance, my friends. Heaven awaits, and God’s timing always is perfect!
See ya tomorrow.

Indeed!

Awe! This was a sweet tribute…if you can play a polka, it makes me wonder if you can dance the polka?? 🤔 😄
With the right leader guiding my footsteps, you bet!
I knew it! 😁
A truly beautiful tribute post.
Thank you, Derrick.
Love it. I am dancing!
A waltz? Or a polka??
This is beautifully written and you look like you were having the time of your life.
Thank you! Were you familiar with the tune that inspired those words? I was having the time of my life in that accordion picture … it was a sing-along at our house. And I was having the time of my life at the wedding of my granddaughter. That picture shows her dancing with her dad (our son).
