I Love you Honey and I miss you so much I wish I could just talk to you, theres so many things I want to share with you still, my only comfort is knowing that you are now at total peace with our Lord & Savior, and of course I know your with your sister and brother and your there with my papa as well and I smile as I think of this, it warms my heart to know one day I will be with you my one true Love. I say this because you showed me Love unconditional like no one in my life. I thank you for loving me so much and for always being there for me and not just for me but for my children, you were that father to them that they needed, especially Eric. Richard although we weren't actually married by law (and I regret this) in my heart I was more married to you than the two actual marrage's I had, and I was with you longer than the both of them together. I thank God for the time we had together and I want to thank you for always being there, I miss you just being there. My Love you will always be in my heart, until I'm with you again.

Eternally Yours,
Love Christina
