Note from the song writer:

Hello, my name is Scott Chochon. I am one of the three writers on the song "I GO ON MISSING YOU". It is an honor to have Kathy choreograph a dance to this song and it is an honor to be able to share this song with you. This song, like many other country songs, I suspect, was initially inspired by an ex-girlfriend. However, after coming up with the lyrics for the chorus I was unsure where to take the song. I work in the construction field in Alaska and for the past two summers I have spent the majority of that time working on Fort Wainwright in Alaska. Fort Wainwright is home to the 172nd Stryker Brigade which was deployed to Iraq and this past summer had their deployment extended. After seeing family members, friends, and loved ones put up “Welcome Home” signs and then to have these hopes and dreams delayed, I knew the direction to take this song, as a tribute to the spouses/families of the soldiers of the 172nd. For BLESSED ARE THOSE THAT SACRIFICE FOR THE GOOD OF OTHERS. Unable to finish the song on my own I asked two talented songwriting friends from Nashville, Teica and James, to help me finish the song and honor these heros. Thanks to their great talent, and possible marriage at which James was on the road with a country artist at the time with Tecia home in Nashville, they took the song to where it needed to be!!! I have received many correspondences regarding the song. I have been humbled by the strength, courage, and dedication of each spouse/family member. Although many of you have thanked us for the song, I want to say that this song is our simple way of saying THANK YOU to those who have sacrificed so much for us. Again, THANK YOU and GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!

Sincerely, Scott
