It has been a little over a month since God called you Home. After 37 years this is the Longest we have gone without hearing each others voice and that seems to be the toughest for me. There is not a day that passes that I don't think of you and just wanting to hear your voice...We met when we were both just 18 years old and from the night we met we have been in each others lives...We most definetly had our share of bumps and hurdles that we crossed but somehow someway we ALWAYS made it..We created three Very Smart and Beautiful children with good heads on their shoulders. We were such opposites but I think that was one of the Best Qualities that we had going for us. If there was or is a such thing as Soulmates I would have to say WE WERE most definetly..I Miss you terribly but I know you are no longer in pain and misery and for that I Thank God...I know you will be at the gates waiting when my time comes for God to call Me Home...I will Always Love you with all my heart and soul....xoxoxoxo
