Dead Fiancée

This is a true story which happened to me Feb 4th 1991. 

I received a call that night around 8pm that my fiancée had 
been involved in a terrible car crash. 

I was called to identify the body; but I was not home. 

The hospital finally got in touch with her parents so they had 
to go downtown and they called me; after I had just walked in 
from work. We had dated throughout high school (3 years) and 
we were getting married within the next 3 months.... To continue 
on... That was the longest night I remember in my life. 

I finally cried myself to sleep, my dog (who always slept at the 
foot of my bed) jump off the bed and barked... he continued to 
growl but finally ran down the hallway.

I finally rubbed the sleep from my eyes and there she was...she 
was sitting on my bed smiling at me only the way she could. I 
rubbed my eyes again believing the phone call and all that had 
transpired was a nightmare; but when I moved toward her she 
drifted across the room. 

She appeared 2 to 3 more times after that night, I think she 
just wanted to say goodbye... 

There is more to the story; but I did not want to write a book.

I realized that night you don't know what you've got until it's gone.

Thanks for listening.
