A life lived well

Downey Daily 028
Just another "for sale" sign to so many passerby, this sign signifies so much more to me. To me it says "no more Christmas gifts of giant popcorn tubs, no more 4th of July street BBques, no more smiles and waves as I'm heading to church and she's already getting back from it." I can't imagine needing a cup of sugar and not being able to ask her. But the time came when she was called Home and another will fill the spaces and make that house their home. I hope they know that a wonderful woman used to live there.
