This poem is dedicated to my twin brother, George. On March 23, 2025, I found him at his home, peacefully departed. This piece is a tribute to his memory, our bond, and the love that will always remain.”

”A Twin in Heaven” Exactly 12 days short of two weeks, and thoughts of losing you fails to escape me. Debating if perhaps- all the while, a test solely for me?! A test- proving if my strength can not emerge to weak?! A test- to leave behind the visual effects of your flesh that night in hopes it no longer torments me?! Or… A test- to see who’s reaching the Pearly Gates first… you or me?! Sigh…(Crying) Well twin—41 years, 2 months and 12 days… you finally surpassed me. My only request… is for you to save a spot in line for me. INK-U-SCRIPT Pace, G April 4, 2025

Thank you dearly Empress!!! Your words mean so much to me…We were fraternal twins only 1:05 min apart. He definitely was my heart and the reason for me living…this is one pain that seems to never subside…Sending you hugs if you’re a hugger. Thank you again!

First of all my heart hurts for you. My mom’s twin died two years before her and mom went much sooner than I thought she would. My dad and his twin still here, and his twin’s wife. The pearly gates will be opened one day so we can seek first the Lord and then celebrate forever with all our loved ones and the saints. Hugs xx
