Hey Buzzers! I want to share this story with all of you. It's about a very special woman in my life, my Mom. She has had angels in her life for many years. One helped her get through a terrible airplane trip by being there to help her when she needed it the most, one nudged her to go to her parking garage at night to get something from her car and find an elderly lady who had fallen and broken her hip, and one just a few days ago. And that's the one I really want to tell you about.
My Mom recently lost one of her friends, a 99 year old lady who was spry, had all her wits about her, and lived a good full life. She died a couple of weeks ago. As Mom tells it, yesterday when she was coming back from the grocery store, one of the residents asked her to come over to the other side of the parking garage, he had something to show her. This man, retired and liking to keep busy, bundles and hauls out the recycled materials for pick up and that day he found something in the recycling bin. Mom went over and he held out a little porcelain bell to her and told her to read the inscription inside. She did. It said--to Betty, 6-16-14, from Lucy. My Mom's name is Betty, her friend that died was Lucy, the date she died was 6-16-14. I got shivers when my Mom told me that story tonight.
