Wyatt Grayson, Songwriter
I would like to thank a wonderful man named Wyatt Grayson. He had heard of Sam's foundation through a friend. Wyatt lives in Canada and is a country singer. He read about our story and wrote a beautiful song that is dedicated to Areille, Paige, and Samuel. Below you can read the words that he wrote about that sad, sad night. Thank you Wyatt for your heart and for your talent. You are a wonderful man and we will always appreciate you.

I saw a small white cross by the side of the road
On the way as we drove to the bar
It's Friday night and we're out on the town
In my old friend's brand new car
We pull in to park so far from the bar
We walk half a mile to get in
Cause my friend don't want a scratch on his new Cadillac
So he parks where nobody else is
It's a good night all around as he puts the shots down
Guess he's got it in mind to celebrate
And I'm nursing a Coke cause I already know
By midnight he'll be in no shape
We talk and we dance and we look for romance
Like any old boys always do
And as often as not we don't have much luck
As we head out by the light of the moon
When we get to his car, he leans on the door
And he's laughing out loud and I say,
'I think I should drive,' cause there in my mind
Is that little white cross on the way
But he starts up his car and spins the wheel hard
And I watch him go speeding away
And later that night they tell me he died
And he took three young kids to their graves
And I could have been much more of a friend
And I should have twisted his arm
Lord what might have been if I’d only said
Give me the keys to your car
Please give me the keys to your car’
