So a little backstory on how I met Dewey and Sharon
Today, my little family received this bible in the mail and I am so excited to get diving into it. Bubba and I have decided that we are going to read a chapter a night.
So a little backstory on how I met Dewey and Sharon:
We were living in Laramie at the time. I was working at the Hilton as a housekeeper, and Dewey and Sharon were staying in the room across the hall that I was cleaning. We exchanged good mornings and how-are-yous.
Dewey later came back and said I was gifted this and I feel you should have it (it was a $100 bill). I didn’t want to take it because it was so much money. But Dewey insisted. He said you have to promise me one thing though – you don’t buy alcohol, drugs or cigarettes.
I talked about how I was in recovery and that I don’t smoke. I said I am getting married in a couple weeks, so it will be put to good use. I remember Dewey saying “I would marry you if I was still going to be here or closer to you.”
They checked out, so I went into their room and made sure nothing was left behind. Sharon had left her wedding ring on the bathroom counter, so I quickly went downstairs to find them. Luckily, they were walking their dog Daisy before they got on the road and I was able to return the ring to them.
Dewey and Sharon touched my heart in more ways than they know, and I knew I had to find them.
Now mind you, I had very little information about them. All I knew was first names, and that he was a pastor and where they lived. So, it was a little difficult at first to find them. But I did.
And it has truly been a blessing! They were out there that very day for a reason and I am extremely blessed to have met them. I continue to keep in touch with them on a regular basis.
