Dispatches from Home – Called Home to Glory.

| Posted on |

Greetings!

With a bittersweet heart, I report that my dearest, sweet Miss Pete was called Home to Glory the day after Mother’s Day. Just like her to wait one more day to give her dear family one last Mother’s Day with her. She was a 101 and ready to go.

This dear lady was one of Mom’s best friends. Many a Sunday morning at FBC downtown, I would stand on the stair balcony, looking down at everyone coming into the churchhouse. Then, here would come Miss Pete and Mama, arm in arm, giggling like little girls, talking, laughing, and enjoying each other’s friendship.

Miss Pete’s infectious laughter, sharp wit, and sparkling eyes brought joy to our hearts. I know Mama was happy to see her old friend at the Gate. Au Revoir to you both until we meet again.

Big hug. 🥰
