This is a video of the memorial service for my brother, Michael Robert Powers, January 12, 1947 to March 16, 2007. The memorial service was through the Eternal Ascent Society on November 24, 2007 (112407). (The date of the service, 112407, permutes to 011247 moving the 0, Mike's date of birth in this notation.) Mike was always fascinated with numerical coincidences; and I hope he somehow knows this was done in his loving memory. He was a very special person, and I, along with many others, will always remember him that way.
The soundtrack isn't the original one played at the service. It is one I selected using YouTube's audioswap (Some of the songs were protected by copyright and couldn't be used on YouTube for this video; and this is the reason for the change.). It is from an album entitled Medicine Woman III and the track is "The Rising", which is very appropriate. The artist is Medwyn Goodall. Though my brother's taste in music and mine differed, I think he would have liked this track. I sincerely hope so. At the very least he couldn't have faulted me for trying. So, barring any strong objections from friends, this is the track from now on. I hope you find it enjoyable and that it adds to the experience of remembering my brother and celebrating his life. He will certainly be remembered by all of those present at the service and many, many more who couldn't be present. Thomas Powers
