There was a group that never made it big out of Mobile Alabama around 1960 to 1963 I believe. The name of the group is unknown to me, but they split up to go to Viet Nam. The leader of the group wrote a song for my mother after he left, although she was married to another guy.
My mom has been searching for this song for long time. All she can tell me is that the leaders name was Dwayne or Dawyte ( spelling?) and it had to do with a letter from her.
If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

if you give us your mom's name it might help...if it was used in the song or in the title it would help identify it.
if it's sherry could it be "a letter from sherry" by dale ward?
A letter from Sherry
Oh boy, what a girl
But to the boy who really loves her
Its the end of the world.
A letter from Sherry
Brings teardrops to my eyes
A letter from Sherry
Oh why, Sherry, why?
My best friend named Eddie
Came by just yesterday
With a letter from Sherry
Heres what she had to say
Dear Eddie Dear Eddie, I love you I love you
With all my heart with all my heart
Vacation last summer
Was grand
And though you
You never write
I pray I pray
Each day and night
For Im yours
And yours alone
And dear Sherry, shes comin home
A letter from Sherry
Oh boy, what a girl
But to the boy who really loves her
Its the end of the world.
