Here we are again . Another anniversary # 68. Another poem. 

Silent Tears

Each night I shed a silent tear

As I speak to you in prayer

To let you know I love you ♥️♥️♥️

And just how much I care

Take my million teardrops

I’ll wrap them up with love ❤️❤️❤️

Then I’ll ask the wind to carry them

To you in heaven above

I love and miss you more today than yesterday. I miss your love most of all

• I miss your voice
• I miss your smile 
• I miss your smell
• I miss your hugs
• I miss your kisses 
• I miss your jokes 
• I miss how you made me feel 
• I miss your loving 
• I miss your everything

Here I am again honey, another anniversary alone, our 67th. Another lonely day without you. Missing you doesn’t get any easier, at least not yet. I searched for a poem that would tell you what I’m thinking about and came up with the following. Hope  it tells you what I want it it too.

Dear Lord, if roses grow in heaven 

Please pick a bunch for me

Place them in my Rich’s arms

And tell him they’re from me

Please tell him that I love him 

And when he turns to smile

Please drop a kiss on his cheek

And hold him for awhile.

Because remembering him is easy 

I do it every day

But there’s an ache within my heart

That will never go away.

Love you with all my heart , forever.

;Just a Happy Valentine’s Day honey. I miss you more than I can say , think about you every day and need you always, every minute, every hour.

Wanted to share a picture of the most beautiful valentine I have ever received. It is so loved. Thank you. I love you always and forever. ;P.S

The picture of the pillow is a really neat pillow that Becky made for me out of one of your shirts. I love it.

For all the times that you where there to help me from teaching me to fish, planting the garden together or rescuing me in the middle of the night when my car broke down. You will always be loved and missed so very much.

My story is already known by many but whenever the family would get together at GG's and we had a fruit tray Papa would ask me "Hey Marissa would you peel me a grape?" And every time he would ask me this I would sit there for long periods of time trying to peepl that grape without using my teeth. So now every time a eat a grape I either laugh or cry, and I would hear him ask me, "Hey Marissa would you peel me a grape?" <3 :)

Dear Jean

The pleasure I have experienced in your company, the times I have been so happy, makes me anxious to solicit, or rather many more such opportunities. I am so perfectly pleased with what I have seen of you, that I entreat permission to cultivate a more intimate acquaintance.  My circumstances are so far comfortable, as to warrant me in any step of the kind I may feel inclined to pursue! and in the earnest hope that you will favour me with a kind answer, I subscribe myself, dear Jean.

                                                                                  your truly affectionate,

I want to share a poem that I gave to you many years ago when I finally realized just how much you meant to me. I always knew I loved you but it took a few years to fully realize how very much. I think you call it maturing.                                                                  

To Rich:

I told you that I'd love you , until the end of time,

And that I would let you know if I ever changed  my mind,

But that's not what you want to hear, you need more than that,

You want burning passion and I'm a little flat.

But, life goes on, the years go by, the months turn into years,

Some are filled with laughter and some are filled with tears.

But one thing that will never change and that's my love for you,

Although I don't express it much, it's honest and it's true.

Lots of things that matter,some I can't recall

But having you beside me, is what matters most of all. 

I love you.  

Jean

Losing you is the hardest thing I have ever had to endure.  I miss you more today than yesterday and I'd give a million tomorrow's for just one yesterday.

 Rich,  today - February 17th , 2017 would be our 66th wedding anniversary and my heart aches with the loss of you.  You were my soul mate, my partner, and the love of my life.  You were the other half of me.  Not a day goes by  that I don't think of you, miss you and shed tears for you.  You were such a special husband, dad, grandpa and papa. So loved and missed by so many.  I want to thank you for our family and all the wonderful memories that we made together. I will always  love you.

I just wanted to say my father helped me when ever I needed his help without question.
We worked many hours together building decks, sheds, sawing down trees, digging holes, he put up ceiling fans in almost every room in my house the projects are to numerous to mention. The time and bond was priceless.
He is in my heart and is greatly missed.
