1. Mark's watch stopped when he died
2. Mark's nickname was "Chickenman" because of the chickenhouses. I bought him a chicken clock one year after we got married and that night when the funeral director was at the house with the coroner, the chicken clock stopped. (We were all sitting at the kitchen table)
3. My oldest son and his wife went home long enough to get clean clothes because they stayed with me for 2 weeks. When they got to their house - their perfectly healthy English Springer spaniel was dead.
4. Mark worked for the State of Georgia and had a pickup truck assigned to him. His crew washed and parked it at the cemetery close to the gravesite. After the service at the cemetery, the truck would not start. Mark had NEVER had any trouble with that truck, but it had to be towed back to his office.
5. Mark's death was very sudden. A couple of nights after the funeral I dreamed I was in our bedroom going thru his clothes and he was suddenly there. He looked like he did when we were dating, very happy, very healthy, very young. I told him he couldn't leave again. He looked at me with that beautiful smile and said, "Everything's OK. You'll be all right. I don't have a choice. You know I love you, but I have to go." He wrapped his arms around me and kissed me. I woke up crying and could still feel his kiss. I've had many dreams where he appears and tells me things. He told me in one that I was doing the right thing and he was proud of me. He always tells me he loves me right before he "leaves".
