As I reflect on the past year, one thing I know for sure is that Terry’s dad, Melvin is not here to see his grandsons, Trey and Trentyn. Tomorrow, January 23, marks the 15th year anniversary of his death.
What I know is that death is not easy. Sometimes it comes creeping in through my pores without warning. I wasn’t ready to see my father-in-law die. He was good to me and I liked him a lot. His death has been followed by the death of my mother, my brother, and my dad. All of whom, will never see our adopted sons, Trey or Trentyn.
I look at tomorrow with sadness and gladness. I have sadness in the fact that Trey and Trentyn will not know their Grandpa Melvin, but gladness that Melvin is in heaven and suffers no more ailments or pain.
