In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Tootie, I am so sad to hear about Glenn. I have such fond memories of him. It wasn't really "winter " until you and and Glenn came into the office. Actually, you and Glenn were "the winter season". I will never forget how kind, loving and how damn funny Glenn was. I truly loved the guy.
You are in my thoughts Tootie. I just wish I could give you a big hug. Love, Laurie

Dear Tootie - I was deeply saddened by your loss of Glenn. I shall always remember the fun in the pool classes and how I admired the way he always bounced back with a smile after each health problem. Your "zany-ness" in club events will surely be missed. Your love between you two certainly showed and you will have that forever. I lost my husband, Bill, in May and it was certainly not easy. My love and fondest memories go to you.
