We buried Ain't Nora this past Saturday. She's probably sitting next to you right now. :) When she spoke at your funeral, I could hear the pain in her voice. It cut deep. I know she is happy now.
I remember how close you were with her and Ain't Betty. Every morning you'd talk to both of them on 3-way. It was how you began your day. (Keisha and I are just like the three of you in that way -- we talk every morning too. We learned from the best.)
When I heard that Ain't Nora had passed, I couldn't help imagining that she heard a phone ringing, and when she answered, you were on the line welcoming her home. I have a feeling she had been waiting for your call.
