I've been busy these last couple of years getting my life in order. I can't wait to see you again. Babe, this old world is getting a lot worse by the hour. I never believed I'd still be alive when things got this bad, but here I am. At 95 Dad is still with us. My life has changed a lot recently. I realized I wasn't where I needed to be. I will always love you.

Mike, there's not a day goes by I don't think of you and wish I could have your arms around me again. It's now been 10 years. On one hand I'm glad you aren't here, so you don't have to see the things that are going on. I know it can't be long now.

Things just keep getting worse and worse. Dad has been in assisted living for 2 yrs. Becky opened her own restaurant late last year and Heidi is helping her. She already has such regulars as Dwight Bonneville, & the mayor. This weekend they are catering meals for the National Guard. They are doing great. Around your birthday we'll have #8 great-grand. Sierra is having a girl. I love you more today than ever before. If this old world keeps up I'll be joining you.

Babe, if you were here now I know you'd recognize what's going on. I miss you very, very much, but I wouldn't ask you to come back to all this no matter what. I realize more each day how much you mean to me. I also realize how unique you were in a perfect way. You have always seen my Knight in shining armor.
I will love you to the moon and back forever.

Today marks your 7th angelversary. When you left there was a huge hole in my heart where you had been. I still think of you and miss you. That will never change. Since you've been gone we are great grandparents 5.5 times. I love you.

Today marks the third year since you left me. I miss you more today than when you left. You still are the love of my life. Your unconditional love will be with me forever. I'm so glad you don't have to still e here and see all that's happened since you left. 

A good thing is that in a few days Karissa will have our first great-grandson. Most of what else has happened has been not good. 

You are still my life. I miss so much being able to hold you and be held by you.

Today is 2 yrs since God took you home. I miss you more today than I did in the beginning. You are always in my thoughts. Never a day goes by that I don't think of you & miss you. I long for the day we are reunited in heaven. My tears are tears of sorrow for myself & joy for you. You left too soon, but God had other plans for you.

It's hard to believe it's been a year already. Seems only yesterday I said goodbye to you. You will be forever in my heart. I love you deeply still.

To the Love of my Life: I will always love you. When you left a part of me went with you. You are a beautiful person. When Jesus returns I will join you. I am glad you are no longer in pain or struggling to breath. My heart hurts for my lose, but I rejoice for you. You were the best husband, father, friend & love.

For your Birthday

May 13, 2020
I love you more today than yesterday. I miss you even more. I know you are no longer hurting and I wouldn't ask you to come back even if you could. I think of you everyday. With every passing day I realize how much you mean to me and how much you and I belonged together for life.
God knew what He was doing when He put us together.
