Suzanne Somers made sure her long-time love, husband Alan Hamel, knew how much he was adored even after she died.
During a pre-recorded message shared at one of her memorials, Somers sang a rendition of Leon Russell’s 1970 classic, “A Song for You,” according to People magazine.
The “Three’s Company” actress died in October following a decades-long battle with breast cancer. She was 76.

“It took me two weeks to rehearse this song before I could sing it without crying,” Somers said. “It reminds me of that beautiful quote, ‘Music is what feelings sound like.’ “
Hamel told People that the tune was particularly meaningful for the couple, and called it “our song.”
“Suzanne sang it to me every night on stage in Las Vegas,” Hamel added. “Whenever she sang it, Suzanne cried, I cried and so did every single person in the audience.”
