“You struggled with chronic pain for so many years and solutions were finally being found. We were just beginning our retirement years together when you were taken so suddenly from me, leaving a huge hole in my heart. You were my rock, my everything. 45 years of marriage was not enough; I will always love you.”
-Sue
