Frozen in Time

This was the last photo ever taken of me and Bryan together before he went into the hospital for the last time. It was taken on December 24th, 2018, the Christmas Eve service at Saint John’s Episcopal. That night has been a bit lost in the haze of old memories. If I had to guess, we worked the early evening service, then stopped at Walgreens so you could buy your last-minute gift cards, and I’m sure we grabbed something to eat. We may have even cooked at home. Maybe sometime I’ll finally remember what we did that night. Maybe not. This is why I take so many photos, though. I love having these memories. They break my heart, but at the same time allow me to remember. It’s been four years and almost three months. I miss my best friend.
