Jimmy heard his mother singing as he walked up to her kitchen door: Beyond the sunset o glad reunion . . .
Mama? It’s Jimmy. I’m here to take you to the church. Are you ready? It’s going to be fine. Papa’s in a better place. He’s free of pain now.
I know, Jimmy. It’s okay. I’m okay. I’ll get my purse and gloves and we can go. Do you think this hat is okay? Dad loved purple on me. Reminded him of sunsets. Oh, I love that song. It was his favorite. They’ll sing it today, won’t they?
Yes, Mama. For Papa.
