A new month and the last one of the year 2013. Jeannette left us in 2009. It has been a difficult 4 years for me. There have been some good times but even then I still think of Jeannette and how she could have been here with me enjoying them if it wasn't for breast cancer taking over her entire body.
As I sit here in front of my PC typing away I have memories of Jeannette visiting me long ago when I worked at a school in Fresno. She came by unexpectedly. The security man at the front gate of the school called and said a young lady was at the gate asking for me. I thought for a moment that it was my granddaughter but when I walked outside of my office and down the path to the front gate I noticed a hunter green SUV parked at the gate. I recognized it as Jeannette's and so I waved to her as I was getting closer to her. She and I hugged each other and the best memory of that encounter was the fact that after I had finished hugging her she pulled me in closer and re-hugged me again. That alone has got to be the best feeling in the world.
