I met an elderly mother and son at the expo.  They lived together, both were writers and wheelchair bound.  Grandma Day was dressed all in florals and a straw hat covered in plastic flowers, and she had a brimming smile.  Her middle aged son was soft-spoken, and followed close behind her.  His interview was memorable due to his trance-inducing voice, which was melodic and quite calm.  I was mesmerized when he recalled his  father’s dying words, which were all in rhyme.   

Who are you love heroes? Or who taught you love?

“I would have to say my sweetheart of 56 years.  My parents and my savior taught me to love.  It’s a God given gift and you have to share it.  Love is Forever.”

–Grandma Day 

Who are your love heroes?

“My father, he reminded me when he was dying that Life is a book of volumes III, the past, the present and the yet to be.  The past is over and done away, the present we’re living day by day and the future is not set you see.  And that’s the way it’s meant to be.  Life is a walk in faith.”

–Michael Day
