Not sure what to say?

The poem entered by me previously made me think of Bob. I remember him as a very sweet man and he will be greatly missed by friends and family alike.

Bob and I were married in 1969 and were married for 18 years. He was my husband and my best friend. We have three sons together, who have married and given us eleven wonderful grand-children.
