Our Garden of Love
February 25, 2021
As Kathy and I began the journey of raising our family, we became consumed with the daily challenges and tasks it requires. I also had a career to build to fuel our plans and efforts. I continued going to school evenings and she was the one managing the house, the kids and me. Each of us had our roles but it was doing it together that became our reward and goal. Our communication and love grew during these years. As the children moved on we had more time to share. Out of that time grew seedlings of future dreams to explore our love even more. I sit in that garden alone now watching it to continue to grow and still needing nurturing but my days are wanning and that rythym of love that Kathy and I shared together has been interrupted. She was the greatest part of building this garden we both embraced working on it together and sharing even the simple things, the touch of our hands, a wink and a smile and most that laugh she would give when she was pleased. Our memories, her children, grandchildren and our friends are her legacy of love to us all. Our garden will continue to grow as long as we keep and hold her memory. Katherine I will remember you for eternity. J
