Jake received a ‘Dear John’ letter from his sweetheart, Emily. With shaking hands, he opened it to find heart-wrenching news: Emily had found comfort in another’s arms. Heartbroken and seeking cIosure, Jake turned to his fellow soldiers for support.
Gathering all the reminders of Emily’s affection, Jake decided to let go. In a poignant gesture, he penned a note to Emily, urging her to take back her Ietters and memories. Amidst the sea of heartbreak, Jake found a glimmer of humor. Along with Emily’s picture, he tossed in all the other photos he had collected from his buddies. With a mischievous grin, he penned a note to Emily, “Dear Emily, Sorry, but I can’t seem to recall who you are among these lovely ladies.
Please find your photo and send the rest back. Best wishes, Jake.” As he seaIed the envelope, Jake couldn’t help but chuckle at the absurdity of it all.
Lisa Marie Presley had a deeply emotional reason for keeping her son Benjamin’s body on dry ice after his passing.
After her son Benjamin passed away, Lisa Marie Presley kept his body on dry ice for two months for a very heartbreaking reason. Just under four years had gone since the terrible suicide death of her son Benjamin Keough, when Lisa Marie, 54, passed away in January 2023.
Lisa Marie, the sole child of Elvis Presley, departed from her twin children, Harper and Finley Lockwood, who are 16 years old, and her daughter Riley Keough, who is a star of Daisy Jones & The Six. Riley finished a book she had written, From Here to the Great Unknown, and it was published on October 8 following her death.
In her memoir, Lisa Marie discussed Benjamin’s sudden passing in 2020 and disclosed that she had held his body for two months before burying him in a casita bedroom. As she had explained to her father, Elvis Presley, “there is no law in California that requires someone to be buried immediately,” and she felt it was important to give Benjamin the time she needed to say goodbye.
Lisa Marie was just nine years old when Elvis passed away, so having his body at home and being able to visit and talk with him had been consoling. Throughout that time, she kept Benjamin’s remains at 55 degrees while debating whether to bury him in Graceland or Hawaii.
She acknowledged in the biography, “I became so accustomed to him being there, taking care of him… I was grateful that I could continue to raise him until I was ready to say goodbye, even if it was only for a short while longer.
