    "comment": "For Shane and Mindy in Chicago\n\nIt's been just over six years since the afternoon where my wife, Mindy, was traveling home by car from a friend's event when I received a panicked call from her that she was having difficulty breathing. As it turned out, something that she had eaten or drank triggered an unforeseen allergic reaction at the worst moment when she lost consciousness and passed away on the side of the road before paramedics could arrive. My life changed forever that day and I still miss her dearly.\n\nWe were both lovers of music and when I remember her, I often think of the random morning where our alarm clock went off and Birdhouse in Your Soul by They Might Be Giants came across the airwaves.  As we both stirred from our slumber, we began to each sing the song's jovial lyrics until we were awake, smiling, and laughing together to start our day.\n\nMindy was the love of my life and I miss her every day.  Can you please help me remember her spirit today by playing some TMBG as I recall that magical morning?",
