But "Summer Song" by Chad & Jeremy, released in 1964 was one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.''

I went on active duty in the fall of '65, it was still at the top of the charts,

I still love that song, always will, would love to have it played at my celebration of life. (hopefully many years in the future)
