I wish I could be with you all today, but know that I am in mind and spirit. What a wonderful husband, father and friend he was. I will always remember his warm smile, witty sense of humor and graceful spirit. I am so glad I got to see his smile one last time.
Take care of each other today and everyday.
Love, Wendy
