IIHer words, in his song

What she wrote about Jasim, word for word, and the lines it became.

A memoryFishing, taking him camping, I was a Single parent. I taught him how to play baseball and Soccer.

In the song 0:14
A single parent doing all I could
I taught you how to swing a baseball bat
And how to kick a soccer ball
We’d go out fishing, pitch a tent to camp
Who he wasHe never met a stranger. He had a smile for everyone. He had a heart of Gold.

In the song 0:49
Jasim, you never met a stranger
You had a smile for everyone you’d see
A heart of gold that couldn't be contained
What she missesI miss his voice, I miss him telling me that he loved me. He was my best friend, and my only child.

In the song 0:10
It was just the two of us, my only child
My best friend, you meant the world to me
I miss the sound of your voice in the room
I miss you telling me you love me too

In the song 2:33
Three months in the NICU, fighting to stay
You took care of her twenty-four hours a day
You made a bed in a drawer right next to you
Her message to himI am carrying on for him

In the song 3:37
I am carrying on for you through it all
But I am carrying on for you, Jasim

About 3 minutes of gentle questions about them, in your own words.

Jasim was his mom’s only child, and she raised him as a single parent. She taught him to play baseball and soccer, and took him fishing and camping.

“He never met a stranger,” she wrote. He had a smile for everyone and a heart of gold.

“I miss his voice, I miss him telling me that he loved me.”
What she wrote about him

He truly loved his daughter Maggie, who has special needs. She stayed in the NICU until she was three months old.

When Maggie came home, he made her a bed in a drawer next to him, so he could be with her. He took care of her 24 hours a day.

“This song really meant a lot to me, when I think about the way my son was”
Jasim’s mom, in her video

His mom lost Jasim, and a year ago Maggie’s sister Mary, to seizures. Maggie turns 20 this year.

Maggie lifts her hands and asks everyone to pray. With her daddy gone, “she knows he’s an angel, that’s how she sees him.”

She asked for a tender acoustic song to celebrate his life. What she would tell him now: “I am carrying on for him.”
