Moving Notice: Change o fAddress
Dear Family & Friends:
I want you let you know that I've moved. I received a call from God, the Chief Architect, who informed me that my new home is ready and that I am to move in IMMEDIATELY. You all know that I have been packing up, getting ready to go but there were some minor finishing touches to be done.
Well, my new home is finally finished and it's behind a beautiful pearly gate just off a serene, celestial shore. Of course the streets are paved with gold and every day is Sunday, so I am told. I have lived in many places before my new home was prepared and I can reassure you that none of them can compare! There's peace, joy, happiness, and no more pain. There is only sweet serenity everywhere.
I can go on and on about my new home, but I have to go get fitted for my new wings. Let me give you my new address:
Kenneth R. Broughton 100 Heavenly Circle
GodTown, Heaven 00000
Until we meet again, Kenneth
P.S. I don't have a phone, but call GOD. If you don't have his number, its listed in the GOOD BOOK on every page.
Debra's Tribute to Kenneth
To my wonderful husband:
Words can't express my love for you, my husband. I am going to miss you so much. Even though we were married for only a short 3 years, I thank God for bringing you into my life.
Ken we fought this together and I would not change anything about it.
I made my vows to you through sickness and in health and till death we did part for NOW. "Take Your Rest" I know you will be waiting for me on the other side!
Your loving wife, Debra
