Dear Husband In Heaven ;  I thought of you with love today. but that is nothing new.  I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too.  I think of you silence, I often speak your name; I think of you in silence, I often speak your name.  All I have are memories, and your picture in a frame, Your memory is my keepsake, with which I'll never part.  God has you in  his keeping, I have you in my heart.  Your wife, Dorothy.

We weren't prepared for you to go, you were too full of life to be taken away from us so soon.  It's still hard to believe how much your smile and your laughter in our ears.  Your abscence leaves a hole in us, we're filling with our tears.  You taught us how to be our best, to in the moment live.  To never hold a grudge for long and loyal friendship give.  Your presence was a light and joy. Your Children.
