Holding Hands
Mom holds dad's hand after he died at our home in Woods Cross, Utah on Feb. 14, 2023. My parent's who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, were sealed to each other 30 years ago on Valentines Day. A "sealing" is a practice that forms an eternal marriage and is completed in an LDS temple. Some consider marriage "until death do us part," but a sealing makes it eternal. Before Dad died my mom asked my dad if he'd be her Valentine, he said said "Yes, forever," and asked if she'd be his.
