Repose for the soul of my neighbor & friend Emil. He was a kind older man that lived in the house down & in the back of ours. For years we'd talk over the fence, passing the time of day. He was a big gardener like I am & we'd always share tips & discuss what we were planting that year. I lost track of him when our Mom was ill. The two of them were about the same age & yet he & I had a kinship in our mutual love for vegetable gardening. After all was said & done I never saw him again. ...I feel awful not knowing when he passed & being able to pay my respects. He was a good man & I know he “made it”. As a believing Christian, I know it’s never “goodbye”, but merely “I’ll see you later” So Emil, GBY until we meet again. Amen
