MY ANGEL=MY SISTER=MY FRIEND

 




MY ANGEL---MY SISTER---MY FRIEND


How do you define

The word angel


I define it

As heavenly beings

Created by God

To assist people

But appearing in human form


My sister Terri

Has been an angel

To me

For a number of years


Terri was named

After Saint Theresa---the Little Flower

The Saint of the ordinary


And Saint Jude ( her middle name is Judith )

The patron Saint of hopeless cases


How fitting


She assisted my Mom and Dad

And me financially

When my Father

Was maimed by a surgeon

And couldn’t work anymore


Saint of the ordinary

My angel---our angel

My sister---my friend


After my Father died

Because of my health problems

And my Mom’s advancing years

She brought us to Florida

Found us a place to live

And continued

To help us financially


Our angel

My angel---my sister---my friend


What a grateful blessing

To me

To get to know

My sister Terri---as an adult

All over again


My Mom, Terri, and I

Had so many happy family times

Down here in Florida


I feel

So greatly blessed


My sister---my angel---my friend


When my Mom

Had her emergency surgery in 2007

And pulled through

My Mom said,


“I would have given up

But every time I looked up

You two were standing there

I had to go on”


So grateful

For the last 2&1/2 years

The 3 of us had together

As my Mom passed on


My angel---our angel

My sister---my friend


I never had a computer

Couldn’t afford one


Terri gave me her computer

In 2005---and thereafter


If one word

That I have ever written

Has touched you

You can thank my sister Terri


After my Mom died

She increased the amount of money

She was giving us/me

So that I didn’t have to move


Saint Theresa---patron Saint of the ordinary

Saint Jude---patron Saint of hopeless cases


Theresa Judith---

My angel---my sister---my friend


I always told her

That she was going to be the first Jewish Saint


Now that she is Christian/Catholic again

On her birthday which was October 7th

I told her she was promoted

From a Saint to and angel


At any rate---today---the feast of ALL Saints today

Please join me in saluting her

And ALL the Saints that touch each

And every one of our lives on a daily basis


This one is for you
