Good song for hospice?
Post Body

I'm a volunteer at hospice, playing my guitar and singing at people's bedsides when they're dying. I feel like I don't really connect well with African-American patients and their families and I want to find a good song to help with that. I just started playing "It's so hard to say good-bye to yesterday" by Boyz 2 Men and was wondering if people thought that would be a good song to play for black families. Is there another song that you can think of that might be better?

Are you able to ask the families ahead of time? This sounds extremely personal and there might not be a one size fits all answer

Ok, is there a consistent age range of the patients or does it vary greatly?
