Christmas Requiem is a sweet and tender tale full of Christmas joy.

Mary Simmons is nearly at the end of her rope. With two children and the proceeds of two meager jobs the only means to support them, the outlook for Christmas is both bleak and lean. It has been a long-time since her ex-husband has bothered to help support his abandoned family and it shows. There may not be even enough money to get the children's small gifts out of layaway.

David Johnson on the other hand has it all. That is, if you consider material possessions and no family everything. The only thing he has to sustain him for the holiday season is to work. There nearly is not enough time to stop and even have his children's presents wrapped in time to mail them across the country so the children can open them without his being present to enjoy it.

One of Mary's part-time jobs is wrapping gifts at the mall and a chance meeting between the two begins to stir a series of events that may give both an opportunity for a Christmas to remember and possibly to enjoy forever more.

This short story is recommended reading for anybody who wishes to feel the heart warming hope that the holiday season can bring.
