My dear Anita, and to your family. I'm so sorry to hear this news. I didn't know your husband, but I know you battled valiantly for him, and with him, through the surgery last fall. Please take all these thoughts and wishes as comfort, and know how proud I am of you for your love and devotion. He was a lucky man indeed. My heart hurts for you Sweetie, but he's at peace now and in a wonderful place that his faith afforded him. He'll keep his eye out for you! All my best.
