As
most of you are aware, my mom passed on February 12th. My dad has
been doing well considering, but today will be a tough one for him as it would have been their 63rd wedding anniversary.
Looking
back, the most memorable part of their marriage for me was every
night they would say the Lord's Prayer together....and I mean every
night. Even when one of them was in the hospital they would say it
together before the other left for the night; if one was out of town
they would say it over the phone.
As
my mom neared her journey home, she was unable to speak. One night I
overheard my dad tell her, “Its okay honey, I'm saying our
prayers twice; once for me and once for you”. Now if that's not
love, I don't know what is.
And
now these three remain: faith, hope and love.
But the greatest of
these is love.
(1 Corinthians 13:13)
