I
BY CMARIE FUHRMAN
have found it hard to accept that I will never hear my late husband’s voice again. Though nearly everything can be found archived on the Internet, there’s not a clip, not one recording of him speaking. Of my late father’s voice, I have a cassette from 1976. Recorded for my grandparents, miles away in Montana, is the sound of me talking as I open Christmas presents, my dad and I singing “Rudolph.” For years after his death, I would sit in my truck and mouth memorized answers to decades-old questions. But I sold the truck, the tape deck with it. I had Dad’s voice transferred to MP3 but now twice removed, it’s
not the same. I can describe my childhood in sound. Cartoon jingles, the front room drapes closing, sprinklers on the lawn. 56 KLZ-AM Country coming from the kitchen, interrupted only by the oven timer’s racket that let us know the cinnamon rolls were done. Outside was another soundtrack. One that connected me to wonder. Helped me to sleep.
