Day 11

Dear Deceased Person I Wish I Could Talk To (a.k.a. Granddad),

Some people might choose someone famous to talk to or more predictably, God or Jesus. But I don't care what famous dead people have to say and I talk to God everyday. But I wish I could talk to you, Granddad, because I would tell you that I miss you and that I think about you. I would ask you what your last days were like and if whatever fear you had, whatever hesitation or doubt, whatever pain you felt, if they disappeared the instant God took you home. I would ask you if you watch over Grandma or if heaven is so all encompassing that you have no worry for her because you know she's in God's hands. 

I would tell you that Jr. is getting bigger all the time and that I wish you could have met her before Alzheimer's stole your mind like a thief in the night.

I would tell you that while on earth you created an amazing family that continues to grow and thrive and that you should be proud. But I'm sure you already know that because I believe that in heaven, everything is made crystal clear.

I would say I love you and I'm glad you're home.

Love,
Missy
