My Dearest Family,

           There are some things I’d like to say, but first of all, I want to let you know that I have arrived OK. I’m writing this from Heaven where I dwell with God above, where there are no more tears or sadness, there is just eternal love. Please do not be unhappy just because I am out of sight. Remember that I’m with you every morning, noon, and night. The day I had to leave you, when my life on earth was through, God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you. It’s good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone. As for your dearest family, they’ll be here later on. I need you here so badly, as part of My big plan. There is so much we must do to help our mortal man.
