Patsy Cline was born Virginia Patterson Hensly on September 8, 1932 in Winchester, Va., but moved frequently as a child, living in up to 20 different homes in her early years. Hensly's first interest was dancing, but she soon became an avid singer and a standout at her church choir. After a bout with serious illness at age 13, Hensly returned to singing with a vengeance, and her powerful voice became a fixture on local radio shows and at area dances.



After marrying Gerald Cline in 1953, Ginny Hensly, as she was then known, took the stage name Patsy Cline and soon landed a deal with Four Star Records. Unfortunately her first 17 singles, which were more rockabilly than her later work, failed to chart, and Cline remained an obscure artist outside her hometown. The sole exception was the 1956 cut "Walkin' After Midnight," which reached the country Top 20 after she performed it live on the Arthur Godfrey Talent Show, foreshadowing her future success.

In 1957 Patsy divorced Gerald Cline and married her old flame, Charlie Dick; they later had three children together. Meanwhile, Cline's career began to blossom. Her single "Walkin' After Midnight" reached the Top 20, and in 1960 her contract expired, freeing her to change labels. Moving to Decca Records, Cline was able to record a wider variety of material, and she soon rose to stardom.

Her first new single, 1960's "I Fall to Pieces," recorded with the Jordanaires, became a No. 1 country hit and crossed over to the pop charts, where it reached No. 12. In June 1961 Cline suffered a serious auto accident while in Nashville and spent weeks in the hospital near death. When she recovered she had a bad scar on her forehead, which she covered with a wig.



Nonetheless she remained enormously popular. Her next singles, most slow, romantic pieces and all recorded with famed producer Owen Bradley, reached the top of the country and pop charts. Hits like "She's Got You," "Leavin' On Your Mind," and "Crazy" (the latter written by Willie Nelson) became country staples, while the slick production and rich arrangements that characterized her recordings influenced Nashville for years to come.

After performing a concert in Kansas City on March 3, 1963, Cline attempted to fly back to Nashville, but bad weather delayed the private flight for two days. On March 5, Cline, her manager Randy Hughes and fellow performers Cowboy Copas and Hawkshaw Hawkins took off in the small private plane despite the foul weather; the plane crashed in Tennessee, killing everyone aboard. After her death Cline's fame only grew, much like that of rock pioneer Buddy Holly, who died under very similar circumstances.

In 1973 Patsy Cline was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, the first female solo artist to be so honored. Numerous re-releases, collections, and boxed sets that chronicle her short but illustrious career have been released in recent years.

A candle to remember, may it burn ever so bright
As I look to the heavens on this very night.
Beyond the stars, your loved one soars
Embraced by their Saviour on heaven's shores.
As the angels protect them and sing their sweet name
We honour their lives with the glow of this flame.
So I light this candle for your loved ones tonight
As a symbol of my love and their eternal life.

♥†♥ Hugs From Heaven ♥†♥

When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.

If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.

If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.

If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.

If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.

So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.

Come Sing with Me
~ Marilyn Hinson ~

-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-

Come sing with me of being free
Of fluffy clouds above the sea,
Billowing, swirling, as if at play
Reflecting soft colours at the close of day.

-:|:-

Come sing with me of soft, white sand
Of friends together, walking hand in hand,
Of a shoreline stretching far and wide
Of the moon and stars at evening tide.

-:|:-

Shells scatter on the beach, washed in by tides--
Not so different from our own lives;
Each shell separate, no two the same
Though mingled together, each has its own name.

-:|:-

Come sing with me of each man's worth
A right we have from time of birth;
We all are different, no two the same
Yet God knows each of us by our name.

-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-

*ღ* My Memories *ღ*
(Patience Strong)

On the road that all must tread
You have travelled on ahead
Out into the morning light
Out of reach and out of sight
But never far away
For every night and every day
On the wings of memory
Something brings you back to me
Some simple and familiar thing
That sets my heart remembering.
