Holding her hands
looking into her eyes
peace washing over them
as she entered paradise
Words of love
exchanged in their eyes
holding each other
as she entered paradise

Theodore "Ted" Louis Van Patten Sr.
describing his wife, Barbara Elaine Van Patten,
in the moment of her passing
from this world into paradise,
together, speaking with their eyes,
holding each other’s hand
