Ralph Stanley's powerful song is the backdrop for a tribute to my late wife Melinda Beachy.
This appeared in the New York Times in a feature about Ralph Stanley;
"The songs tend to be about hard times, unfaithful lovers, deceased children, lonely graves. One of his most famous, O Death, is a pleading dialogue with the Grim Reaper himself. It used to be said that when you heard a Ralph Stanley tune, you either wanted to get drunk or go to church and get saved."

It's a pity coments like that mindless moron's can't be deleted - probs the mentality of a 2 year old I'd say. Obviously a very soulless and sad individual. Keep up your great efforts with all your videos Vern.
