For 40 years, Suzie was my wife, my partner, my constant. And in all that time, one thing never changed-she had the biggest heart of anyone I've ever known.She gave her love freely and quietly. She didn't ask for attention-she just showed up, again and again, with kindness, patience, and a deep care for others. Suzie made people feel safe, seen, and loved.
In the end, she suffered more than she deserved. And yet, even then, her strength and grace never left her. She worried more about me than herself, right up to the end.
Suzie lived with love, and she left this world the same way-deeply loved, and never forgotten.
Thank you, Suzie. For everything. Rest now, my love. Your heart lives on in all of us.
