VOICES FROM BEYOND is a family tribute to our sister Julie Jensen (Griffin) who was brutally murdered by her husband, poisoned to death at age forty. Julie was the mother of two small children and was a selfless tender loving person who was the only girl of her siblings. From the year of her death in 1998, it took nearly ten years to finally convict her husband guilty of the heinous crime. He was sentenced to life in prison with no parole in Wisconsin 2008. Each piece is inspired by a small slice of Julie's life: childhood, personality, siblings, being a mother, her difficult marriage, her letter from the grave, and her living by the lake. Hopefully these small musical notes can help memorialize Julie so others can share in her sincere warm personality. To learn more about Julie and her story, visit oursisterjulie.com

EACH OF US IS A VITAL THREAD IN ANOTHER PERSON'S TAPESTRY; OUR LIVES ARE WOVEN TOGETHER FOR A REASON. One of the best things to hold onto in this world is a friend
Be Someone
Be someone who listens, and you will be heard. Be someone who cares, and you will be loved. Be someone who gives, and you will be blessed. Be someone who comforts, and you will know peace.
Be someone who genuinely seeks to understand, and you will be wise. Be someone kind, someone considerate, and you will be admired. Be someone who values truth, and you will be respected. Be someone who takes action, and you will move life forward.
Be someone who lifts others higher, and your life will be rich. Be someone filled with gratitude, and there will be no end to the things for which you'll be thankful.
Be someone who lives with joy, with purpose, as your own light brightly shines. Be, in every moment, the special someone you are truly meant to be.
-- Ralph Marston
