You mean THIS one?
*********************************************************************************************************************
"So ok, this is a little long. So this happened last Sunday morning "sometime". I had a friend I went to school with. He was 3 years ahead of me. His sister was like a year ahead of me. Really good guy. I worked with him later at a local Autozone in Macon.....I guess about 89-90. Then, I worked with him again at the local Chevy dealer where I was an alignment tech and he in the parts department. We always kept in touch here and there after I left. He eventually ended up at the local Cadillac dealer in parts as his last job. Robby got sick with stage 4 colon cancer and died 4 years ago. It was really a sad thing. He was just the nicest guy....all the guys wanted to be him cause all the chicks were fallin all over him, but he was never full of himself and always humble and gracious. Good Christian, great conservative. I cannot say enough good about him.
So......Sometime Sunday morning, the 4th of July I had a dream that he was in. There I was back in the parts department at the Chevy dealer again. Real as all getout. All the guys were there. We were all laughing, joking and cuttin the fool Nobody was saying anything about any car parts. All of a sudden, everybody got real quiet and serious lookin and Robby with a serious look on his face said "Tell my wife I love her". It woke me up out of a dead sleep. I had to get up and get a glass of water. It was that real. It actually kinda upset me.
Now, so far, this could be just a random dream like most any other. We've all had dreams I'm sure that seemed really real. I have his widow, Amy on Facebook. Met her when I worked at the Chevy dealer. Don't know her that well, I just know who she is. So I get up Sunday morning and tell Kitty all about the dream. Not like it's a big deal or anything. Kitty says I need to send my number to Amy and get her to call me and tell her about it. I said no, it wasn't that big a deal...Kitty urged me to do it anyway saying she might be going through a rough time and need something uplifting. The more I thought about it, the more I knew Kitty was right. So I did. I sent Amy my number through messenger.
So she calls me the next day and I tell her all about the dream. Of course, like I DIDN'T want, she starts ballin. I apologize saying I didn't mean to cause all that but she says "no these are tears of joy, I need to explain something". She proceeds to tell me that Robby's FAVORITE holiday was July 4th. That even as strong a Christian as he was, he loved the celebration of our country's founding even more. She said he went all out decorating the house, getting fireworks, cooking out...REALLY got into it. Makes sense, as he was a really BIG patriot.
It gets better. Amy has been on Facebook over ten years She told me she has never even opened messenger. Never even looked at it. She said something was tugging at her to look and sure enough she had a message. It was me.
I don't know about yall, but that's more than a mere coincidence. Robby and I weren't terribly close, I'd say when we worked together, we were pretty tight. I feel like we kinda always had a like connection of interests in different things and probably could have become really close had our paths not separated somewhat. I believe I may have experienced something from "the other side". I don't care if some of yall think it's stupid or not. I just had to share it. I've sat on it too long."
