Isabel Barbeitos-Martin

December 20, 2018

Hello my love. How I miss those beautiful blue eyes looking deeply into mine just to say "I love you my Isabel" every single night before retiring to bed. A man who truly loved his wife more than life it's self. Merry Christmas to my husband and father to my two sons. You have a grandson named after you, and we are expecting, finally after all these years, a baby girl. I just know you will be beaming like the brightest star in the galaxy when she is born.

I promised to love, honor, and protect until death do you part. Boy, apparently it did.
Love from your sons, Joshua, Nicolas, and grandson Michael Alexander.
