“Special Remembrance”
Just looking through some of the old mail concerning Sister Mary Emeline, and found a letter from Sister Mary Cyril – letting me know she was to get in touch with me should something happen to my friend, Sister Mary Emeline.
Seems that the Nuns at the Sisters of Christian Charity – have special information they give to their “Nun” friends – to pass on – per their last request to be carried out -. Sister Mary Emeline, wanted me to be notified when something happened to her and also a special remembrance sent to me. I guess that is a good idea for everyone to do – there are always somethings that you want someone to know, and or to receive when that day comes that you are going on – to your reward. So, is there a better way, than to make a list with the things you want distributed with the names and addresses.
The remembrance that Sister Mary Cyril sent to me was a lovely Crucifix, which I have hanging by the door going to the backyard. Every morning when I open the blinds by that window and pull open the drapes for the sliding door – I see and remember my very special friend. It was a real surprise to me when I first receive this Crucifix – it was really something to receive and with all the other things she sent through the years that I have hanging in the kitchen. The memories of keeping in touch and becoming “family” instead of just “friends.”
So, again today – I am glad and happy to have been a “special” friend to my dear friend, Sister Mary Emeline!
