Notes, cards and more from behind the veil

I was going to the cemetary and wanted to place a lovely bunch of carnations on my sons grave. I went to the local store and saw just what I wanted on the top shelf of the flower display. I had to reach up to grab them.I placed them in the car and when arriving at the cemetary unwrapped the paper they were in to place them in some vases. I was astounded to find a crumpled piece of paper in the flower bunch. I opened it up and scribbled on the back of a shopping list was a love heart and kiss.How did it get there?

It was the first Father's Day since my son's passing. We were all very sad, especially my husband. We knew there would be no cards from David this year. My husband opened a drawer to look for something There lying on the top was a father's Day card from the year before. In it David had written I hope you enjoy my presents and prescence on Father's Day. I remember him writing this the year before and thinking it rather weird. I think his prescence was  there on that Father's Day.

It was shortly after my son's passing. My younger son was very upset. I had been reading about ADC's that people had received where they had received mobile phone calls from their loved ones even after they died.My son said, "I wish David would ring me?" at that moment my husband came down from David's room. He had been looking for something but instead had found a note on a chair. It said my younger sons name, followed by David's mobile phone number.I think David did phone my younger son but not in the way he expected.
