As the Month of February aka The Love Month comes to an end I Honor the Sweethearts in my Life. My Grandparents William and Eva Palmer who were married for around 50 years and my parents Edward & Mable Palmer who were married for 40 years.
Dearest Sweethearts
Tell Me What Heaven is like
Come to Me in My Dreams and tell me of Paradise!
Are Aunt Helen Garcia and Aunt Thelma still as talkative as they were on earth?
It must be great that you get to see Aunt Helen James, Aunt Gladys, Uncle Clarence, Uncle Willie, Cousin Linda, Cousin Bertie, Grandma Hattie Finney. Tell them how much I miss them. Tell them my world has not been the same since they ascended to God.
Are the streets really paved with gold?
Are there 12 Gates to the City?
And What of Jesus and the Angels?
Oh How I long to be reunited with you once more!
No more pain. No more sorrow. No more hurt. To Leave the cares of this cruel world behind!
I know that I’m just passing through onto a better, richer more rewarding Life.
But one day I too shall take my seat at the Welcome Table! What a Great Day that Shall be!

There is never a day that goes by that I don’t think of you!
I’ll See You in My Dreams!
