Saying goodbye to the sweetest, kindest, smartest, most generous, creative, loving and caring man in the world is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. The journey moving forward will not be easy, but with the help of my Heavenly Father and the love and encouragement and prayers of my precious family and friends I'll make it and I'll be OK.
Sharing life with you was great. Love and laughter all the way. We will always remember your unselfish devotion to us. I will cherish great memories and will continue to adore you. We have shared a lifelong love that few know and experience, I'm so grateful and thankful.
God has blessed us beyond measure. I look forward to spending eternity with you forever where we will have "joy unspeakable and full of glory."
All my love "sweet man" can't wait to see you again,
Love Flo
