He Loved me

by Teresa
(Lufkin)

Leroy left his own tribute of love to me.
While going through his father's things the young man found letters, and letters, and letters. There were letters and cards dating back 31 years. There were other little personal items, perfume, a silk rose I'd left on his pillow some 20 years ago. All these memories were not packed away in a box in the back of a closet. They consumed the top two drawers of his dresser. I was always just a step away, always in his heart, mind and soul. How truly blessed I have been to have had a man love me so deeply.
