Oh Sally, I love you! You are truly an angel on earth! I stopped by this page on your site, just out of sheer curiosity, and haven’t laughed so hard in a very long time. I laughed so hard, I cried! Thank you for your wonderful response. I love your music, and am continually grateful for your generosity in sharing your talents and testimony with all of us. My son and daughter sang “Because He Lives” at their grandparents’ funeral. It was a perfect testimony of our Savior’s love for us at a time of great tragedy in our lives.
I have been asked to speak at a Relief Society conference about how the Savior strengthens me in coping with loss. I came looking for this song to share with them. I’m delighted that there is a Spanish translation as well, since we have a Spanish Branch in our stake. Thank you for making it so easy to use your works in sharing gospel light.

Sally, l think that troll does not listen to your music very well at all… when l play or sing it, it does wonderful things inside my Spirit and anything and everything just disappears as l immerse myself in the music….you have such a wonderful talent…thank you for sharing…

Oh my! Glad you can laugh at such ridiculous comments. I love that you are free giving of your musical talents and gift and that you let all people share in it. Thanks for all you do to bear your testimony in song.

Hate mail is the worst. I commend your sense of humor in dealing with it, Sally. Being an online menace, if traceable, could actually harm someone's professional life and market positioning. What a great way to start the week...

My dear music friend and sister,

My meager, but heartfelt “thank you” seems so inadequate in comparison to the generous gift you share with the world! As my Stake’s newest Music Chairman, I’m even more grateful for all of the beautiful music you have written and then share. This upcoming Sunday (1/28/18) will be a special Regional Stake Conference. I have asked my Ward Relief Society President to sing a solo. She chose “I have not seen, yet I believe,” and I have the privilege of accompanying her. So beautiful and so appropriate for this moment in time. You’re so wonderful! I pray you will ALWAYS be able to bless many lives with the language of the angels! God bless you, dear Sister DeFord!
