Yellow Fingerprints from Heaven


Today a coworker shared a story with me about how she got up to come to work this morning and on her car were a bunch of yellow fingerprints. She said she felt that Sue had place them on her car to remind her of their friendship.
Yellow was Sue's favorite color and she often wore it. She was buried in her favorite yellow t shirt and surrounded by gifts and mementos from everyone who loved her.
In reality the yellow on my friends car was pollen that was falling from the trees here, but why it attached itself only to the fingerprints is beyond either of us to understand.
But we both knew that it was Sue who put her hands upon that car and touched it with the golden yellow of the streets that are paved with gold and from Heaven itself.
We are very thankful for those yellow fingerprints because they reminded us both that love never dies.....it lasts forever....and ever....just like a friendship as strong as we shared with Sue.
