Daddy is 94 and mom is 92. Dad started slurring words as if having a stroke. He went from the ER to the ICU to Hospice in 48 hours. His children surround him and his wife is by his side. Out of the blue she starts saying this little poem...quoting the next to the last stanza. Keep in mind she has Alzheimer's and this totally blew us away.<br />After a Google search we now know why she knows this. They have lived in Pittsburgh their whole life!!

She waited until we were both awake and heard us laughing and I am convinced that is when she crossed over knowing it was the right time that morning.
