Today is the anniversary of the car accident that claimed my parents’ lives. It’s been 23 years since that day.
Tonight, my cousin, K, called me to get my opinion on a gift that his wife thought of and that my family wants to carry out. They would like to get a “In Memory Of” dedication sign with my parents’ names placed at the scene of the accident.
I am moved to tears – and it takes a lot to make me cry. But these are tears of joy, not pain. It means a lot to me that my mother and father meant so much to my mom’s side of the family that they would consider this gift. I can’t think of a better way to honor my parents.
Thank you, K and H and the rest of the family for such a thoughtful gift. Thank you for remembering two wonderful people.
