David and I met 19 years ago. I thank God that our paths crossed. We met at an Engineering Firm that him and I worked at and there... "our future began". We always said, it wasn't by 'chance' that we met, that it was meant to be. I thank God, he allowed us to be together for the past 19 years before he went home to Heaven, I'm eternally grateful for those years.

Til we meet again honey, I love you.
