July 28, 2025
It’s been a rough day.
Every death anniversary is a painful reminder, but the first is always the most acutely felt, a raw wound of a year’s worth of ‘firsts’ without them.
I’m profoundly touched by the incredible love, thoughts, prayers, and words of comfort I received today.
Before going to bed for a much-needed rest, I have to share an incredible thing that happened tonight.
John, was murdered on July 28, 2024 and pronounced dead at 10:25 PM
A few moments ago, I decided to read my past Facebook messages I received from John. Examining these old messages from him intensified the sorrow. However, a particular message unexpectedly softened the grief, bringing a quiet comfort
This message was sent on July 27, 2023 at 10:24 PM which is exactly, one year, one day and one minute before his official date and time of death… 111
111 is a profound Angel number and often seen as a spiritual sign from a deceased loved one indicating they are near and trying to communicate with the living. It is considered a sign of hope and reassurance.

This is clearly a message from John telling me I’m still surrounded by his love ![]()
Thank you, God.
Thank you, son.
Momma loves you more ![]()
*I had John’s Facebook page memorialized shortly after his death. Here’s a screenshot of the page, which includes his profile picture. This same picture accompanies the message above *
