Phyllis,my life long friend and wife. You always had my back no matter what happened.Your unconditional love said it all, even when I was busy making a fool of myself.I am so glad we did the Alaska trip when we did.We had so much fun.A merciful GOD took you just when you were about to get hit with excruciating pain. I will miss you till we meet again and watch the sunset together.
As always, you have my heart, my love.
The one you made happy....your husband....

Where do I start. I will miss you more than anyone will ever know. Words cannot express how much you meant to me. I wish we had more time. I took that for granted that time. I wanted that family vacation we never had and in the process forgot the precious moments I could have had. I will miss you every day till we meet again. I love you mom.
