After my dad died, my mother asked me if I wanted my dad’s winter coat. I said yes, and packed it in my suitcase. That winter, I put it on. Reaching into the pocket, I found a sales receipt from Dad’s favourite hobby shop. Looking at the date, I realized it must have been from his last trip to the hobby shop, before he was bed ridden with cancer. To be honest, I cried.
I then checked the other pockets. In one I found a $20 bill. That brought a smile to my face and I said “Thanks Dad”.

Warren,
Sad but might also be a sign that your Mom is watching over you and is pulling for you as you go through such a difficult and tragic experience.
