So it finally rained up in my corner of the state today....but.

13. When my husband died the owls came.

I didn't see them, but a neighbor did. He told me about it later. After the ambulance had taken my husband unconscience, and I believe now he had already passed, to the hospital and family and I followed them, the neighbor lingered and said that's when he noticed two of the biggest owls he had ever seen up in one of the trees around our house. I believe now they had come to escort his soul from this world.

About three days later two mourning doves came to our bird feeder. Doves are on his family coat of arms because his surname means peace in Irish. I had never seen doves around here before nor since because the hawks get them so they stay away. I think he was trying to tell me he was all right.
