A Message to Charl
Norman Berger, 6 October 2005
Darling Charl
As insomnia once again extends its relentless influence, I hear your gentle voice calling “ Hey Pops”
As I stare at the ceiling, gradually I visualise your gentle face as slowly it appears to me - that smile that lights up your whole face with your loving smiling eyes so that I can relax again and I know that sleep will soon return. I know that you are not far away and that you visit us all while we sleep.
It is exactly 20 weeks since that terrible night in May, the pain and sorrow are very difficult to bear. But for us all and especially for Martin, Solly and Sam your memory will remain forever.
Bless you, I will see you again soon.
With kisses from you ever-loving Pops. xxxx
