Created in loving memory of my beloved Grandma Epifania Santos Soto, this song honors the love, warmth, and beautiful spirit that helped shape who I am. Though I can no longer see her, hear her voice, or hold her close, her love lives on through me and every note. For anyone who has lost someone they deeply love, the song reflects how that love remains in our hearts, memories, and the people we become.
