I received a call from the nursing home. Grandpa was failing rapidly. There was nothing to do but hold his hand. “I love you, Grandpa. Thank you for always being there for me.”
Memories… memories… six days a week, Grandpa in that old blue shirt caring for those cattle… on hot summer days plowing the soil, planting the corn and beans and harvesting them in the fall…always working from dawn to dusk.
But on Sundays he put on his gray suit and hat. Grandma wore her winecolored dress and ivory beads, and they went to church.
I removed Grandpa's things from the room and found a very old handmade valentine in the top drawer
of his nightstand. A piece of white paper had been glued to the center of the heart. On it, penned in Grandma's handwriting, were these words:
TO LEE FROM HARRIET with All My Love, February 14, 1895
Are you alive? Real? Or are you the most beautiful dream that I have had in years? Are you an angel — or a figment of my imagination?
You made me laugh when my heart was crying. You helped me set new goals when I was dying. You showed me dew drops and I had diamonds. You sang to me and angelic choirs burst forth in song. You held my hand and my whole being loved you. You gave me a ring and I belonged to you. I belonged to you and I have experienced all.
