Hello Maecella,
I tried to attend your mother’s funeral, but my insurance wouldn’t let me go for a social visit. Would have liked to, since I so enjoyed meeting and talking to you. Also would have liked to see some of the Dorcas people from our era. Well, my consciousness was there which is just as good. I saw some wafting clouds this morning and it made me think that it was your people taking Kathy back home.
You know where I am if you ever want to talk about the great times that we shared with Kathy
