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.

Steve and Alice have been customers of mine for 9 months. I just learned that one of my very favorite customers has gone home to the Lord. I will miss her so much as I can only imagine how much her wonderful family (whom she told me about often) will miss her. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. She was a very loved woman.

Dear Allison, Pam, Mishey & Family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom. To me she was a cool lady. Thank you Alice for all the years playing poker with you, it was so fun and the beautiful blanket you made special for me. Which I still have. You will be sadly missed.
