On January 26, I posted a story titled "Returned Mail" about a lovely Southern lady named Charlotte who died last year at the age of 98. Last week, her husband died and on February 14, Paul Parker was buried. They were married for 73 years! When couples who have lived and loved for a very long time die, it often happens that when one of them passes away, the other soon follows. I am remembering my own paternal grandparents, Tom and Ida Teal, who died within a week of each other when I was 17. I like to think that Charlotte was waiting for Paul - that they are together again. Their love story lives on as we remember them.
