I also thinking of you. Everywhere I go in the home we got together you are there. I go to the bedroom your present is there. I see you in my vision all the time. We eat dinner we are missing you. It's different you would think it would be the same, but you being is the difference. I am not going to wish you here that would be wrong. The last few weeks of your life was not right. I love you my love. I have always love you. I know you were sick and you love was needing me to be there for you. That's when I realized that you loved me. You always wanted me by your side.

The clearest memory of you was when I was in the 5th grade and she was visiting Aunt Judy at Cordial Cottages. You and I were standing on a raft in the pool. My tooth got broken from horsing around.

This is 5 day since you left me. Even though I am not alone I wish your presence around me my love. Together we did not realize the love that we had for each other because of everything we had gone though. But know this I never left your side no matter what happen. You had this rotten disease and it was hard for me to understand so it made me angry. I love you Eddie. I have always loved you. You will always be in my heart. Your wife always and forever.
