Family and friends, my heart is sooooooo sad even right now. But I continue to rejoice in the fact that Mitch gave over an hour and a half of praise, worship, bible reading, and praying just minutes before the Lord called him home. We had just decided to go to bed. With a kiss on my forehead and tummy I rushed off to the bathroom to brush my teeth which is always the final thing I do before sleep, only to hear a choking sound coming from my husband. Despite every earthly effort made, both at home and when rushed to the hospital, God took him while at his best.
I met my husband in a unique way....( walking to the bus stop to George's College Extension School).... he was driving passed and slowed the vehicle...pushed out his head through the car window ...and shouted, "THATS MY WIFE." Never ever seen this man before.
38 years later...And now, with a kiss on the tummy and forehead ( interpreted by my Sister in Law as the forehead for me and tummy for the children I bore him...he closed his eyes to this world Forever, leaving me in a unique way.
I love you Mitch...through all the good and bad times, sicknesses and good health, joys and successes to us and our children....we weathered them all for 38 years and I will never ever forget the deep, true and infinite love we shared until Christ comes and we meet again. You were my one in millions. Forever my love..
