To start, I just adore that first paragraph of Something to Remember Him With. The introspection on James' character speaks volumes about him and it's a perfect way to set the stage for the remainder of the story. An excellent excerpt for an overall exceptional piece. Seriously, I hope you did well on that assignment because you captured human's attachment to inanimate objects perfectly.

That being said, your description of your church sanctuary is beautifully written. Admittedly, I'm not a member of any particular religious denomination, but my town has some wonderful historic churches that I've been to just to visit. You capture that majesty so well in your writing.

At this point, of all the pieces you've shared here, I think Something to Remember Him With is my favourite. It's just so emotive; it speaks to anyone who's ever loved and loss with its bitter sweet nostalgia. ( :
