A message from a dead father to his daughter:

November 3, 1919

"For Mrs. Annie H. Post

Dear Daughter,

I know you have wanted me to speak to you before, but I could not.

I did not at first understand the ways over here very well

and it took time to become adjusted.

This life is not what I expected, but so much better than I dared hope.

Some of us try to describe it, but it is so hard to get the right words.

Could you describe a pink rose without the word ‘pink’ to one who

had never seen a rose?

If you said it was shaped like a cabbage, but much smaller,

and with leaves of a finer texture, light or reddish-white in color,

and of an agreeable odor, would it convey a very vivid picture of a rose?

And yet that would be a fairly accurate description.

So are the descriptions of life here.

Very good, but they lack.

The vital thing is the assurance that

this is a life made up of

love and beauty and work

which triumphs over death for all time.

I am now living that life. Tell your mother.

Father"

Acknowledgement

I would like to thank the McWhorter and Edmiston family for allowing me to share their family’s gift, especially Aunt Liddy, Andy, and Tim. Without your love and insights I would never have pursued this path that I am on… . so thank you for enriching my life!

Forward

A young woman, stops by every Monday morning, to read through the handwritten messages written in pencil on the stenographer tablets… always wanting to catch up on the family’s latest communications from the other side. The year, 1941, the messages during those years were conveyed through her aunt, her mother’s sister.

In her day-to-day life, this weekly ritual, stopping after college classes every Monday was nothing too out of the ordinary. In 1919, her mother was the first in the family to receive this gift of communication, receiving direct messages from family, friends, and strangers from the other side through automatic writing. Although this respected family kept their secret within their own family and tight knit circle of friends, they all felt fortunate living with the ultimate truth and knowledge about what is to come. Many people in this world believe Eat, Drink, for tomorrow ye shall die. This family, in a small town in West Virginia, had learned through the messages from their loved ones who had passed on, to Eat, Drink, and live wisely for tomorrow, ye shall live.

This family is related to my brother-in-law.
