Great thread. Love that video too. "Feed my sheep"... not a suggestion but an action. I wish they all ended up the same as Kens story too. I can't get this one below out of my head-

3 years ago I helped an elderly German lady named Sonja Gunder. She escaped from Berlin when she was young & moved here during the war. She t-boned into my Tahoe by accident while I was going 40MPH.... spun me around pretty good. I knew she was very special, but I didn't know why. She was so calm & wise about things. She had no family... lived alone. I took her to dinner that night & made friends with her after picking all the pieces of molding all over the road from the wreck. She spoke about angels & how they appear at certain times & places... we talked for hours that night. I made sure she got home okay that night driving her damaged Camry. I left her place feeling like I had a Grandma again & a new wiser perspective about a lot of things she told me about life. I was going to take care of her some, mow her lawn, etc... check up on her... my new friend. After calling her several times over the next few days, a neighbor finally picked up the phone & told me Sonja died in her sleep that night after I followed her home. I got to thinking about all the things she said in the last hours of her life... how profound she was... at 81 years old. How I got to be her last friend she spoke to, what an honor it was... funny how God works sometimes... I felt cheated & honored at the same time. She told me that God puts angels with people at certain times... for very specific reasons... she gave me examples of her angels. She was mine that night.
