Do You Remember?

Do you still remember the birthday gift from Tina and Jean?

Do you still remember the message you wanted to put on the tile?

Tina, Jean, Wayne and I attended the inauguration of the Leave Your Mark! Community Campaign on the new Ken Spencer Science Park at TELUS World of Science on October 21, 2012.  It was so thoughtful of Tina and Jean to think of you when Science World came up with this name your tile campaign and decided to buy you a tile for your birthday this year.   Too sad you could not get to see the tile in person but I knew  you were with us that day.

When A Date Hurts

Was it the weather or was it just me?
Was it the date that hurts or was it just me?
I cried myself to sleep that night and it was the first time after Terry passed away.

October 10 may mean nothing to most people but it could have been our 8th anniversary.  Terry would normally arrange a trip for us in October.  Even though he did not say much about the trip but I knew he cared. 

 

On this October 10, even though he was no longer with me, even though there was no more trip for us, he did once again show his presence to me.  He remembered. 

Thanksgiving Day

I once thought I would be left alone after Terry passed away. 

I once thought the 'Froese' would soon be a past tense to me.  

I once thought it would be a lonesome Thanksgiving Day for me from now on.
