When my Dad died, a friend gave me the poem, "Pennies from Heaven." I began to pick up every penny I saw lying on the ground. I find it amazing that when I'm most troubled or the most indecisive I always seem to find a penny. One day I got out of my car at the warehouse - with a major problem I had to address. I couldn't decide what to do. Twenty minutes later I went to get back in my car. There right next to the door were two pennies which were not there when I parked. My Dad was with me. I made the decision with what I perceived to be his help. I doubt if I'll ever throw one of "Dad's pennies" away; but I needed a place to keep them. So, this piggy bank was designed for me. I hope it will be as meaningful to you as it is for me. 

The piggy bank was created to represent heaven - a blue sky and white fluffy clouds. Use Talk to Us to communicate with the artist. This pig will be created just for you.

The author of the poem thanked me for creating a piggy bank for his poem. This is his message to me "I am the author of the poem Pennies from Heaven. I wrote and copyrighted it in 1998. I wrote a short story of the same title and theme just previous to writing the poem. My only purpose in writing to you is to ask you could place my name and copyright at the bottom of the poem. Thank you. Charles Mashburn."
