Jo Ann was an avid birdwatcher. Her daughter, Liz and I went for a walk yesterday and when we came back, the lady next door asked if we had seen the big bird on the side of our RV. She said it had been sitting there for about 45 minutes. A few minutes afterward, the funeral home called and said the cremation was complete and we could pick up the urn at our convenience. As Liz reminded me, "NOT ALL ANGELS HAVE WINGS", but maybe this one did. I'd like to believe that Jo Ann is watching over me. She always said she wanted to return as a bird.
