Goodbye Aunt June
Goodbye, Aunt June. You will be truly missed. When Rick told Brandie that you are now in Heaven with Jesus, she wanted to know if you had to go alone. Her daddy assured her that the angels came and took you there. She was comforted by that. She still wants you to find her fish--and pet it. You don't have to go that far.
I hope you didn't mind my singing. I sang some of every song I knew from the hymnal, even though some thought you could no longer hear or understand. I was concerned that you started to cry when I sang "I Come to the Garden Alone." I wiped your tears and continued in the book. Then I started from the beginning of the book again. I came to "I Come to the Garden Alone" again. You cried one solitary tear. I wiped it with my fingers as it slid down your cheek.
Later that evening I told Betty about singing the song. She said that song was sung at your mother's funeral several years before. Now I KNEW you could hear me!
The phone has been ringing off the hook. Relatives are coming from all over the state. We've been remembering funny stories and talking about good times. Yes, we will miss you.....
