August 03, 2023

In life, there are plenty of good and happy moments that bring an abundance of joy. Getting married, having children and watching children graduate are moments that create joyful, cherished and long-lasting memories.

However, unfortunately, there are also way too many excruciatingly painful periods throughout life. Losing a spouse is one of the most gut-wrenching and agonizing experiences anyone will ever endure. But actor John Schneider, with his latest album, hopes to provide some help those going through that dark valley.
The Dukes of Hazzard star mentioned that he plans to release an album dedicated to the memory of his late wife, Alicia Allain, according to Entertainment Weekly.
The outlet reports that Alicia passed away in February following a four-year cancer battle.

John mentioned that he and his wife were frequent collaborators, often producing films and music together. Now he has a specific aim he hopes to accomplish with his latest batch of music, the album We’re Still Us.
“Now that my much, much, much better half is not here but waiting for me, I am trying to honor her professionalism and trying to honor her skill,” he said.
John Knows The Separation From His Late Wife Is Only Temporary
John states that writing the music and singing those songs on his new album “hurt so bad.” Despite the pain in creating the album, John also hopes to help others going through a similar situation.
“But the final product is going to be healing for those who are going through this… statistically speaking, two people get married, one of them is going to die first," he said.
John understands the separation is only temporary and expects to see his wife again in Heaven.

"I did not lose her. I know where she is, and one of these days — if I do not screw it up — I will meet her there. It is up to me now," he said.
“And he will put an end to all their weeping; and there will be no more death, or sorrow, or crying, or pain; for the first things have come to an end.” – Revelation 21:4
