Hey Honey

I think I'm ready but never to say Good bye remember it's so long Goodbye is forever. In the 38 years we shared together and they were some real tough years but ever battle we ever had we stood by each others side and got through it. Just like I can still feel you even now standing by my side that is how I am going to make it You were the best in everthing you did even in death. You were and always will be my soldier you fought one hell of a battle. We never had money but we had 38 of the richest years one could ever have. Not one day since we met did I not feel loved by you. See how rich we really were but at the time we couldn't see it because it didn't pay our bills but honey thank you for YOU. You said you would never leave my side and I so believe because I do feel you holding me up.

Skippy Boo I'll forever love you
