Jerone, as I write this I'm literally in tears because I knew a day would come that we all have to leave, but not this soon, words cannot express the pain and heartache that I feel. My heart is crushed and broken into a million pieces that will never be put back together again. I miss the phone calls, text messages and get togethers at the house. I miss just hearing your voice on the other end of the phone whether we were checking up on each other or just to say hi. Imma miss the laughter, me fussing at you telling you, you better take care of yourself because who am I going to fuss at if you're not here and to be here for your kids and grandkids, your reply always I know baby, I will, promise. I remember our last conversation when I told you that I wanted to speak on a platform but I wanted you to know before I made the decision and your response was whatever you can do to help others or yourself, do it. Then shortly after you send me a text saying I'm an amazing woman, but no you are an AMAZING man because you had no negative feedback or questions you felt if it was something that could benefit someone you were on board. We spent 17 years of our lives together and throughout it all we continued to have a bond that was unbreakable. I'm going to miss my bestfriend of 30+ years, we were able to express or talk about any and everything and give each other advice. Thank you for being my bestfriend and being there for me as I was there for you. We both knew how deep the love we shared for each other although we weren't, together our love still remained. Thank you for being the phenomenal man and father to our 3 children even though we shared 1 child together there was never a difference in that. You always said those are my kids. They would not be the men and women they are today if it wasn't for you. You showed them love, how to be independent, loyal, admiration, and all the above. Some days for me are better than others, I'm mad, I cry, then laugh at things that happen throughout the years. A song will come on, tv show/movie or daily routine that reminds me of you. I understand why you had to leave, I know you were tired, in pain and that your time was done on this earth it was your time to walk through the pearly gates of heaven. Our love, laughter, and memories will forever be in my heart. As I've always told you, you and the love I have for you will forever be imprinted and engraved in my heart. Forever and for always buttercup!
