Not a day goes by that I don't hear some words of encouragement from my friend Don, or hear him telling me to exercise patience, or just laughing to tears over some stupid situation I got into. I'll miss him dearly until I see him again. And yes I will see my friend again because, none of us are getting out of this place alive! Remember the good times. For me, remembering Don is remembering my smile :-)

As I sit here today and every day I love and miss you so much, my heart aches so much. As April 2nd approaches it's so hard, I remember every detail before you took your last breath. Don I love you so much it doesn't get easier, I wish I could kiss and hold you again, I need you so much. When God took you home, he took away your pain and suffering I am glad you don't hurt anymore. Each day I pray that you are watching over me and loving me. You will always and forever be in my heart, you are my one and only love, my sweet Don.
I am so proud to be your wife, you have given so much to me and for always grateful to you, you were the best.
I will love you every day for the rest of my life until I am reunited with you.

I'm saddened to learn that Don has "slipped the surly bonds of Earth", but, I hope, his loved ones take comfort knowing his final flight, he will this time soar higher than ever before and "touch the face of God".
