Read this story, then watch the included video. Open your heart and imagine you being in their place. I can't imagine anyone not being touched and moved. It is truly is both beautiful and heartbreaking at once.

A very talented duo with a genuine love and dedication to each other and their daughter.
Cheater Cheater and The Heart of the wood are a couple of my favorites from Joey and Rory.

A very lovely and telling, yet devastating, slice of life - with such a song associated. Those of us who have lost a beautiful younger person from our lives so unexpectedly, and seemingly unfairly, have lived such experience. There is no way, there are no words, to fully explain the loss and the feelings. A touching song can help.

They were a great couple, and made great music. They loved each other and placed importance on family. It's sad that she passed so young.

Heart of the Wood was one of my favorites. Looking back from this distance, her version of Free Bird (can't remember which album, but one of the first ones) is pretty poignant, too.

Beautiful and heartfelt.

I couldn’t imagine finishing out this life without my sweetheart by my side. We’ve been married for more than half of our lives so if half of my life was gone so to would I wish to join her. As a Christian I would carry on but I’d be far less than 50% of myself without that girl!

Thanks for a “nice” change Paul and Happy New Year to you and yours!

That's pretty cold hearted.
