"Today a lot of memories came to mind of our time together our conversations about family faith friends ...little things like watching Barney Miller / All in the Family had us laughing together ...learned to love Tom Selleck through you ..LOL...understood your good and bad days... always a hug and goodbye til next working day ...didnt mind coming over to help set the remote control when it got confusing ...after you left to crown point ...beginning to regret you leaving your home when 2019 hit ...then my hearing loss made it impossible to understand voices like i used to...like the song from Della Reese Til We Meet Again 🎶 Til We Meet Again 🎶 At The Father's Feet 🎶 See you when the Last Trumpet call Us HOME"
