TO THE FAMILY OF MS. CATHERINE MOORE MOODY. MS. MOODY ALWAYS HAD A SMILE ON HER FACE AND ONE FOR EVERYONE ELSE. SHE ALWAYS HAD KIND WORDS, THOUGHTS, AND BLESSINGS FOR EVERYONE EVEN IF IT WAS THE FIRST TIME SHE MET YOU. GOD SURE HAS A GREAT ANGEL IN HEAVEN. WHEN MY HUSBAND, DOUGLAS WAS SICK, SHE ALWAYS CALLED TO CHECK ON HIM AND CHEER HIM UP. SHE ALWAYS ASKED ABOUT MY MOTHER AND FAMILY. SHE WAS THAT WONDERFUL PERSON THAT EVERYONE NEEDED TO HAVE IN THEIR LIFE. WITH DEEP AND HEARTFELT SYMPATHY, MY FAMILY AND I SHARE IN YOUR LOSS.

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.
