Before It's Too Late
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would be reading your obituary so soon. I stared at it for the longest time with my mouth open, not believing what I was reading. Tears rolled down my face, beginning as a trickle and ending with a waterfall! Deb, I never got to say the things I wanted to say. I know I told you I believed in you when that shit-storm happened at the school. I wrote you that long letter. You called me and we had a very nice talk! I was so happy you trusted me and knew I was someone you could talk to. I wanted you to meet my daughter, Jordan. She's my WORLD and I wanted you to see me accomplish something great. You would be so happy to know that I have taken my last class in college to get my teaching degree. I have the Praxis exams and student teaching.... But I did it Deb! I did it. YOU knew I could and would. You always believed in me and knew I was not just lazy and I WAS putting in all my effort! I loved you so dearly for that! Not so sure anyone
