Just Wanted To Let You Know (Prose) Poem by Loyd C Taylor Sr

Just wanted to let you know…

We went to check mom out today to be sure that she was laid out right. She sure did look peaceful. I loved that outfit. I think the folk here did a pretty good job.
Once everyone had gathered the family was seated the service began.
Pop sang “When You and I Were Young” I guess his way of saying
“I love you” and “Good By” to his best friend. We read some scripture and prayed. Then it was if heaven came down! The ‘church’ broke out!
We sang “When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder” and then spontaneously song after song after song for almost an hour. By the time we stopped there wasn't a dry eye in the place.
Pop told one more story and we said Goodbye and went home.

Just wanted to let you know.

Dedicated to Kirk DiVietro and family
