Welcome!

You've found Winder Lyon's shop featuring his CD, "If Ever I Cease to Love" with recordings of his original music and classic favorites like "Mr. Bojangles."

This album was inspired by his dear sister Mary Ann and her daily struggles after a stroke over twenty years ago... despite this, she has kept an open heart and provided hope and joy to all those around her.

A word from Winder...

Twenty years ago, my sister, Mary Ann, had a stroke. From then until now her body has begun to deteriorate so severely that she can no longer move, and can barely speak. With less than a handful of words at her disposal, she chooses most often to say “I love you.” After two decades of struggling inside a broken body, she has distilled herself into a joyous human being, filled with love, appreciation, and humor.
