To My Other Half:
Even though I am only a half without you, God is working to make me a new whole.
Still missing my love of 50 years. Every new day I realize how truly blessed I was to have you to love, protect and care for me. You have left me with children who are constantly showing me glimpses of your selfless character with their acts of love and care. You trained them well and they are following your example. Even though I wasn't ready for you to go from me I know God's timing...
