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.

To the Hill family, I was very sadden when I learned of "grandmas" passing. We loved her very much and will miss her greatly. She was someone we could count on for confort when we were dealing with my mom's passing and someone that always offered a good joke to make us smile. Though she will be missed here on earth know she is in good company where she is now. We will continue to pray for you all. God Bless.

To the Hill family as a whole and the Wiley's. I'm so very sorry for your loss. I did not know Mrs. Hill personally but the thought that people I knew growing up have lost a loved one breaks my heart. You all are in my thoughts & prayers.
