Its coming up on seven years since your passing , I can't help but remember our first years together, and the saddness of what we lost  . What we lost could never be replaced. I often wonder how different things would have been . I am so thankful for the second chance we had together , I promised you I would take care of you, I did my best. I have the memories of our later years which to me was like we where never apart for forty years . I remember when we first started seeing each other again I told you how great you smelled and that you smelled exactly how you did when we first started going out in the early years and you started laughing. I was a very lucky man to have had a second chance most people in life only get one  , we had our ups and downs but everyone does
