Eva Marie Cassidy was born on 2nd February, 1963 in Washington Hospital Center in the United States to Barbara and Hugh Cassidy. Eva grew up with her siblings, Anette, Margaret and Dan in Bowie, Maryland. The Cassidy family was very musical. From an early age Eva could master harmonies and first learnt the autoharp but later went on to lear the acoustic guitar. It wasn't just music at which she excelled, she was also a very talented artist. Through her teens, alongside her brother, Eva performed in a high school band called Stonehenge. Some of the members from Stonehenge later worked with her on her later recordings. Though an musician, Eva also worked at a tree nursery, called Behnke's. While recording an album in 1987 alongside ex-Stonehenge musician, Ned Judy, Eva sang vocals for Method Actor. Songs written by David Christopher (formerly known as David Lourim). It was through these recording sessions that she met music producer, Chris Biondo. She made eight albums in total. The Other Side (Duet With Chuck Brown), Live At Blues Alley, Eva By Heart, Songbird, Time After Time, Imagine, American Tune and Method Actor. But tragedy struck on November 2nd, 1996, when she died of melanoma (skin cancer) after a long battle with the disease.
It was after Eva's death that her albums became really successful. It was in 1997, that Paul Walters, a producer for BBC Radio 2 discovered her, and it was Over The Rainbow that was played on Terry Wogan's show and ultimately led to the release of the Songbird album, which by late 2000 achieved Gold and by 2001, platinum. Eva's songs have brought solace to those who have lost loved ones, and her songs have been used for Cancer research adverts and have been used in Love Actually (2003) and Maid In Manhattan (2002).

A candle to remember, may it burn ever so bright
As I look to the heavens on this very night.
Beyond the stars, your loved one soars
Embraced by their Saviour on heaven's shores.
As the angels protect them and sing their sweet name
We honour their lives with the glow of this flame.
So I light this candle for your loved ones tonight
As a symbol of my love and their eternal life.

And beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.

♥†♥ Hugs From Heaven ♥†♥
When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.
If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.
If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.
If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.
If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.
So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.

Come Sing with Me
~ Marilyn Hinson ~
-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-
Come sing with me of being free
Of fluffy clouds above the sea,
Billowing, swirling, as if at play
Reflecting soft colours at the close of day.
-:|:-
Come sing with me of soft, white sand
Of friends together, walking hand in hand,
Of a shoreline stretching far and wide
Of the moon and stars at evening tide.
-:|:-
Shells scatter on the beach, washed in by tides--
Not so different from our own lives;
Each shell separate, no two the same
Though mingled together, each has its own name.
-:|:-
Come sing with me of each man's worth
A right we have from time of birth;
We all are different, no two the same
Yet God knows each of us by our name.
-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-.....-:|:-

*į¦* My Memories *į¦*
(Patience Strong)
On the road that all must tread
You have travelled on ahead
Out into the morning light
Out of reach and out of sight
But never far away
For every night and every day
On the wings of memory
Something brings you back to me
Some simple and familiar thing
That sets my heart remembering.
