Thank you for this beautiful tribute to your daughter and the music inside her, Jacqueline. It’s an honor and a pleasure to hear Ana’s voice. She is a songbird.

Hello Jacqueline, your beautiful Ana Is with you; her light is connecting to yours. Your shared love will live forever. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful daughter Ana with us. Her singing is truely an angelic gift. How blessed was she to have her Mum recognise and embrace her gift and open the door for her to blossom in song and music, and to grow so much from such a shy young girl to such a brave young woman, so beautifully!

I am in the middle of reading “The Light Between Us” by Laura Lynne Jackson, who lives on Long Island: Laura writes about her journey as a medium and psychic. She is also a school teacher of English and a married Mum of 3. Laura welcomes people to contact her as the conduit between loved ones living in another dimension and those still here, providing a pathway for more healing and understanding. I am writing from Australia and I apologise if I am being too invasive. God bless you, Vivienne

Your beautiful Ana, life can be so cruel. Her voice has such a natural timbre to it, it has been a real privilege to listen to these songs, thank you for sharing what must be a very special collection of memories of your darling girl, and making her a small part of our lives too. I will always think of her when I hear ‘Songbird’ xxx

Nights in White Satin is one of my all-time favorite songs. As soon as the music began, and I heard Ana's voice, I got goosebumps. What a treasure! Thank you for sharing Ana and her voice with us. The ache in her voice in "Songbird" was palpable; it sounded mature beyond her years.

Jackie, Ana’s voice is exquisite. How have you not shared this aspect of her with us until now? Those songs were so beautiful to listen to. I am seriously moved.

Thank you, Sally! I've wanted to write about Ana's beautiful voice for so long, but it meant going through her performances and recordings and it was just so painful. It took this long for me to finally be able to write about it.
