    My Mum, also my best ever friend passed away in my arms on the 29th November 2019 at the age of 91. She suffered from dementia but knew all the words of this song. We chose an instrumental version for her funeral. I cry everytime I hear it but also smile when I recall my Mum singing it will a smile on her face. Love you always My Mum until we meet again. Can't smile without you xxxx😘

    My "Late" wife HELEN and I were great Foster and Allen fans especially "After all These Years" both our eyes would tear up and we would always hold hands whenever we would listen to it. We were married 46 wonderful years. "I Love You Mrs. Boss Bear, I'll be seeing you soon"
