notes

To Our Friends,

We have been ever so changed since September 11, 2001.

In the midst of a terrible tragedy, we witnessed a tremendous outpouring of love and compassion from people all around our country...sending cards, banners, blankets, and food to the rescue workers. After serving as a volunteer Foot & Ankle Doctor at St. Paul's Chapel near Ground Zero, and experiencing the overwhelming sense of unity and patriotism exhibited by all the relief workers, it was clear to me that we needed to somehow continue these positive efforts and help those who lost someone on that tragic day.

Thinking often of my own son, James Edward, I realized that many babies (63 as it turns out now) would be born without fathers. These precious gifts of life would never get the chance to be held in their father's arms and sung to at night.

December of 2001 gave birth to "Heavenly Lullabies". Myself, along with twenty other artists, have created this CD to serve as a legacy to those heroes who sacrificed their lives on 9-11. We sincerely hope that these classical lullabies will help heal and soothe some of the deep emotional "scars" left in the wake of that tragic day.

"Heavenly Lullabies" is dedicated to all those babies born after 9-11 who lost a father that day, along with the nearly 1,000 children who lost one or both parents that day. This musical "tribute" is in memory of all those fallen warriors who were the embodiment of life, liberty, heroism, strength and hope. May these timeless virtues guide us through our own times of despair and difficulty, and summon up in all of us the courage displayed by those who so nobly sacrificed their lives for love of country and fellow man.

A significant portion of the proceeds from the sale of this CD will be donated to the Twin Towers Orphan Fund (TTOF), a charitable trust fund designed to benefit the surviving children of parents who perished in the Twin Towers, Pentagon or Somerset, PA terrorist air disasters. For more information you can visit the fund's web site at http://www.ttof.org.

Some of the most renowned musicians have generously contributed their time and efforts to bring this CD to fruition. I wish to thank them and all those who have taken up the mantle of caring in order to provide those who lost so much with a little joy, hope and compassion.

God Bless and Many Thanks,


Dr. Kathy Reilly Fallon

    author: John Werber, M.D.

    Kathleen Reilly Fallon's voice is wonderful on this CD. The voice is warm and soothing, and harmonically smooth. She has a strong vocal range as well. And her musical skills are impressive(she wrote the music and the lyrics to "Guardian Angel Prayer"), which is a personal favorite of mine. And I love the "Gaelic Cradle Song".

  • Building bridges to restore hope through this music!!
    author: Rev. Fr. Gerard Critch

    This Heavenly Lullabies CD continues to bring healing and inner peace to many in our community who remember these terrible events and seek guidance and hope. Violence has disrupted these children's lives. As ministers of hope through music and song, these artists help to heal the lives of children who lost a parent in the World Trade Center, at the Pentagon or onboard the four downed airliners. With an average of 40 of these children per year beginning their college over the next 18 years, I pray that hearts and lives be repaired, restored and revived as people purchase and listen to this beautiful outreach of love. As a rescue/recovery worker at Ground Zero, I continue to be truly touched by this CD. God bless those behind this project!!!

  • Simply beautiful...
    author: Marie S. Breheny, Ph.D.

    The beauty of the songs on this CD is matched only by the love that inspired the artists to create it.

    My child has listened to multiple CDs and tapes of Lullabies, but so far this is his favorite.
