Three years feels like three million miles and three million lifetimes. I keep in mind the things we would discuss and use those thoughts with things I deal with everyday. Although the memories I have of you are strong, it cannot replace having you were here with us.

Wow, right? I'm sure you're proud, but it's all exciting and new!

What an emotional weekend! I wasn't sure how it was going to be to have to face your anniversary again. But so many family and friends shared nice stories and pictures and spoke of how they still think so much of you and how often they think of you still....well, it made a horrible day a bit easier to handle. It's clear to see that all the lives you touched are still reeling from your passing as much as D and I are! It doesn't make anything better, but it makes me take comfort in knowing that no one has forgotten about you and it's clear to me that they won't either. T.O. Was so kind to us and spend the morning with us (and you!). Mom at SPX said Sunday was all for you! But the truth is, as kind as everyone was to me this weekend, it still is not any easier yet. I love you and miss you so much. So many happy things you should be experiencing here beside me physically! Please talk to Our Lord for us?
Love, your wife, Lori M

Merry Christmas Jim. It's Another Christmas morning that I woke up and didn't smell the coffee on, your famous hashbrowns cooking and you singing to Christmas songs, in particular, "Dominic the Donkey". It's just too quiet here. Miss you so bad.
Love, your wife, Lori M
November 6, 2015
Happy Anniversary, honey...22 years, or at least today should have been. Miss you so freaking much.

October 28, 2015
Yesterday was hard. Would have been your 50th. Today's harder. Maybe because of the rain. So many people thinking of you yesterday and always. Knewing you were taken too soon. Shouldn't have been.

I was watching a show today and I spotted an actor from a show from the 70's we'd watch in syndication. I started laughing at the excitement you would have shown over spotting him and commenting on episodes he was in that you liked. You'd have probably made me watch those episodes next and replay them at the funny parts. Wish you were still with me watching these.
Love, your wife, Lori M

Eighteen. How did this day get here?
I cried for almost an hour this morning wishing you were here to celebrate with us. You would have taken the week off from work and no doubt had planned out the day for him. And as cheerful as I was around him last night, I could sense he felt the same way too.
Love, your wife, Lori M
July 31, 2015
Couldn't sleep so I have been awake for several hours now. Thought about a time where you fell asleep downstairs and I couldn't sleep so I came downstairs and snuggled up beside you on the couch. Romeo was mad I woke him up and grunted and "hummed" for awhile. It woke you up and even though you were mad he woke you, you laughed at him sounding off at his displeasure of me shoving him over to get beside you! I miss those silly times so much! Miss you and Romeo.
Love, your wife, Lori M
July 22, 2015
Saw one of those silly internet pics people pass around and immediately thought of us. It's just the sort of thing that we would have shared with each other and you'd be "teasing" me about, jokingly! I could visualize your facial expressions, you laughing and the comments you would have made. It's the sort of thing that I was ready to share, but you're not here. So I sit and stare at it and just cry instead.
Love, your wife, Lori M
June 27, 2015
Thinking of you. No different from any other day, but just thought I'd say it here.

Just wasn't the same without you there with us on Tuesday. So proud of him, I imagine you beaming from ear to ear. Every right to be proud of him. Why, why, why....
Love, your wife, Lori M
June 11, 2015
In the home stretch now! Don't quite know how I've gotten to this point it's been such a hectic school year. I wish you were here with us physically to celebrate. We need you here
Love, your wife, Lori M. XOXOXO
May 18, 2015
I can't believe how busy I've been! So much going on before D graduates! Feels like my head is spinning. I wish you were here to see your son graduate. You SHOULD be here. I know you're watching us and I know you are so proud of him. I can picture you with tears of pride in your eyes, the same tears of pride I saw when D was born and that instantaneous love you felt showed on your face was so strong! I had your High School ring cleaned up nicely so D can wear it on his Graduation Day so you'll be right beside him. I Love You And Miss You!!!
Love, your wife, Lori M
April 17, 2015
What a week, huh? You must be so proud of David cause I know I am! I just wish you could be here with us for all this. It shouldn't be this way. Love you!
Love, your wife, Lori M
March 24, 2015
I really was laughing about something the other day and I kept thinking how I wanted to tell you about it because you'd surely laugh as well and probably make a silly comment. I still can't get over how I catch myself in these situations finding myself wanting to tell you something only to realize I just can't! But I have faith you are watching and so I don't need to tell you because you already know.
Love, your wife, Lori M
March 13, 2015
Wow! What a crazy week of ups and downs! I got through it though and yes, David and I kept pointing out your presence to each other all week. Signs you were watching. Signs of your approval. Signs you were with us. I just wish you were truly with us physically as I could really have used a hug. Several.
Love, your wife, Lori M
March 8, 2015
Jim, things, relatively small things, keep happening and I'm still finding myself saying, "Oh, I'll ask Jim...", and it still hurts to remember that you're not here to ask. Put that smile on and fake it, pretend I'm ok, when I'm not. I miss you so much! I love you.
Love, your wife, Lori M
February 16, 2015
It just wasn't Valentines weekend without you. David went to his first concert though and had a blast. K came over and kept me company while he was out. So icy, so cold and I'm missing you so much!
Love, your wife, Liri M
January 31, 2015
Was thinking of you so much yesterday. I know I think of you every day, but so many details of yesterday just brought up painful reminders of how you're not here with us. It's so cold. I wish you could light the fire and we could just cuddle and watch it.
Love, your wife, Lori M
January 24, 2015
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you. I miss you so much it hurts. It's like that old saying, you could be in a crowded room and still be "alone". Maybe it's the winter making things worse, but I know I'd still miss you no matter what.
Love, your wife, Lori M
January 9, 2015
One Year, Jim. I hardly know what to say. Everything hurts just as much today as it did a year ago. We love you. So many people are thinking about you today! Gone, but never forgotten!

Last night's dream seemed so real. Felt weird to wake up and deal with the thoughts I had. It was nice, it was confusing yet I understood parts and listened.
Love, your wife, Lori M
January 1, 2015
2015. I didn't go out last night. We stayed here. I couldn't handle any "merriment" or "celebration". How can I be happy with you not here? All these pictures and videos of smiling happy people and all I know is heartache. I cry so many times a day and every time I think about how whenever I was upset, I could go to you for a hug or you'd sit on the couch with with me and cuddle with me and stroke my hair and console me until I calmed down, and then you'd start with the corny jokes. But now I cry and I realize there is no one to comfort me. It's either cry like crazy until I get a headache or just push the feelings down until I have a better time to cry.
The Mummers are on today. I don't know if I can watch. Another tradition of ours, ruined.
Love, your wife, Lori M
December 25, 2014
Merry Christmas, Jim. It was just not Christmas without you. I felt so empty. Such a hole in my heart today. I couldn't believe I was standing in front of your grave yet again wondering...why? Why you? Why us? We had so much more to do with our lives. David misses you so much. It's so hard for him not having his beloved Dad around. As always, stay by us, we need you.
Love, your wife, Lori M
December 21, 2014
I'm laying in bed, crying my eyes out. No one knows how much this hurts but others who have walked this same darkened path. I feel so lonely. I don't want to face the holidays. I am sick of putting on a happy face when I'm out and people, strangers, ask me if I'm ready for Christmas. Lie, lie, lie. And do it with a smile. Then get to my car and break Down. I miss your hugs. I miss how I could lay down beside you and you would stroke my hair and gently talk to me and everything would be better. Wouldn't matter if it was a migraine or a bad day, you had a way about you. I try to talk to people, to laugh, it's hard, for various reasons. What a nightmare this has been! One I will never wake from.
Love your wife, Lori
December 20, 2014
Came by with more things today to decorate your grave. I'm hardy decorating our home but I'm decorating your grave. You deserve it. It's so hard. I miss you so much and I don't think people understand that. I love you.
Love, your wife, Lori M
December 13, 2014
Speaking of the song "Blue Christmas", it came on while in a store the other day while I was getting a few things. I just started crying. I didn't know what to do. People were looking at me. I kept my head lowered and kept wiping at my eyes and quickly got what I needed until I was calmed enough to go to the cashier and get out of there. So hard. I don't know how I will get through the next few weeks. I really don't. Why aren't you here? This isn't fair.
Love, your wife, Lori M
December 8, 2014
Stopped by the other day with some Christmas decorations. I'm not even really decorating here. I can't, Jim. I just can't without you! The song Blue Christmas comes to mind. So painful. So very painful. I don't know how I will get through the holidays and they're coming up fast. I'm not baking. Im not sending out cards. Im doing the bare minimum to get buy. Please hug Dad and Romeo and Bailey for me. And aunt Helen and Vince and Josh and your Mom and Dad and anyone I've forgotten. You know I've seen so many people pass this year. So much sadness. I want to make you proud of me and give it my all in 2015. I miss being hugged the most. I need hugs. Not virtual hugs from online friends, real actual hugs. Won't be like yours though.
Love, your wife, Lori M
November 16, 2014
Hey Sweetie, the Annual Church Christmas Bazaar was on Saturday. Lots of familiar faces. People asking how we are getting by. Hard trying to put on a brave face. Hard to say "We are fine" when emotionally, I'm not. Deep breath, chin up, place faith in God. Oh, as our norm, no winning at the baskets, but it's for a good cause. Miss you so much!
Love, your wife, Lori M
November 6, 2014
Happy 21st Anniversary, Jim, these past two weeks have been so incredibly hard to get through. All I do is think about you. As the night get darker and colder I feel more lonely. I have to FORCE myself to keep busy and that isn't easy. Please help me.
Love, your wife, Lori M
October 27, 2014
Happy Birthday, Sweetie! It just feels so weird not having you here. You'd be on vacation this week and next week. This for your birthday and next for our anniversary. We would have gone out to breakfast for your birthday. We would have had a strawberry shortcake for you (your favorite!). It seems empty and just plain wrong. But, I love you, and I hope you are having a Happy Birthday in Heaven with all our family and friends who have passed and with Our Lord. Can't leave Bailey and Romeo out of that too. XOXO
Love, your wife, Lori M
October 23, 2014
You've been on my mind constantly. I know you're near. Guide me with what needs to be done. Ask our Lord to give me the strength and patience, Mom too. She really needs some Heavenly Guidance too.

September 13, 2014
Tonight's 5pm Mass was said for you. The priest, Fr. Jim from St. Denis (ironic, huh?) said the Mass and was really nice. You would have enjoyed his Homily. They did announce that the Christmas Bazaar may not happen this year if they don't get more volunteers. David is upset as I know how much we all enjoyed it, so I told him to consider volunteering. He's got to make a decision before tomorrow I think. Of course I'll do it with him. As with every fall, there will be a church breakfast in a few weeks. I know how much you loved that too. A lot of things occurred today that seemed to have to do with you. Reminds me that you're still here with me in spirit if not physically. Still wish you were here though.
Love, your wife, Lori M
September 1, 2014
A lousy Labor Day Weekend without you! David starts school Wednesday: SENIOR YEAR! How did this happen? He looked at his roster online today, which is probably the official one. I had seen one a week or two ago and some classes have changed. Somehow he's not getting a lunch, but he has piano(?????). Also, he got early dismissal all year. I had let him sign up for that hoping he'd have a job by now. Nothing. You have to fill out applications online. And since it's online, they stop you from filling out more than 1 in a 90 day period. He really wants a job so push us in the right direction so he can find one.
Love, your wife, Lori M
August 27, 2014
There is this thing called the Ice Bucket Challenge to raise money/awareness for ALS. Joey called on David, and he did it, and he called on Tommy, Ed and Shawn. Shawn couldn't do it because he was injured and had surgery, so keep an eye on him as he heals, ok? Anyway, today I see HARRISON FORD did it too! And he did it the right way, there was ice in the bucket. No wimping out! Although I'm sure you and Dad are laughing about this, I'm VERY sure if you were still Physically with us, you'd probably have done it too, probably nominated by David or one of your brothers in arm at UPS. You have no idea how much I miss you, but I feel your presence and that is giving me strength. I'm sure you have been watching David drive, not bad, huh? No, not bad at all! Gets that from his Daddy! Keep us strong and safe. No doubt you found Romeo. I miss him, but I miss you more! You have your little buddy to roll around growling at. It was for the best. The vet said had I waited maybe another week, he'd be suffering and you know I would never allow that. Just another crappy thing that's happened this year.! As they say "if God brings you to it, He'll get you Through it!" I'm waiting patiently as possible for my moment and thankful for the blessings along the way.
Love, your wife, Lori M

Guess what? David got his permit today! Keep us safe, please!

Today is David's 17th birthday. We came by and put flowers on your grave yesterday so we could celebrate with you.
I can still vividly remember when David was born. The look of pride and love in your eyes was so overwhelming. I can picture it all...you in the green scrubs and hat, sitting beside him while he was being cleaned and suction. I'm proud to say the expression on your face and love in your eyes will never be forgotten. YOU will never be forgotten. David and I talk daily about the things you would do and say. Sometimes something would happen and we'd say "I wonder what Dad would do/say about this?" We'd see a classic car and he'd mention how you would like it.
Nicky, Nicole and Anthony came over. Nicole is such a beautiful young lady and Anthony...wow....he is shooting up! Joyce was watching Joan and Dani. Dani wanted to come by, but still needs to rest up post sx. Maybe in a couple of months we can get them over for a visit. We all miss you.
You'd have loved the cake from Viso's that I got for David's bday. Still have half of it.
Still waiting on a few important things. Always red tape. Always slow moving. But keep an eye out for us and talk to St. Jude for us.
Love, your wife, Lori M
August 10, 2014
Watched the Perseid Meteor shower last night. Only saw 5, but peak is still upcoming. One was really bright as it zoomed over David's and my head. I thought maybe it was your way of saying HI.
You know what I've been through the past week, so keep an eye out on us please? Waiting for some good news.
Love, your wife, Lori M
July 20, 2014
I just wanted to say Hi. I want to say a lot of things, but I can't find the words. I'm still pushing on. Keep watching over us.
Love, your wife, Lori M
July 17, 2014
That circle that surrounds you disappears pretty fast. Faster than you'd ever expect. Still, I plow forward. Trying to keep my head above water. It's not as easy as it looks.
Love, your wife, Lori M
July 7, 2014
Some days, all I want is a hug. People keep saying to me how strong I am. They have no clue. I put on the mask when I have to face people/go out or whatever, but once home, it all just falls apart again.
I cut the only decent looking hydrangeas off our bush the other day and left them for you. The snow really killed off most of the plant but it's growing from the bottom. I'm sure the deer got the ones we left for you, but our intentions were done in love.
Love, your wife, Lori M
July 7, 2014
Jim, for several weeks now, it seems like there may be an issue with the microphones/PA system at church. If you were here, I know you'd have said to someone you would check it out for them.
Fr. S is gone. Miss him already. We have a new pastor and he seems nice but I don't really know him. I had given Fr. S one of your "Pimple Balls" after Mass one day. I can still recall the Breakfast at church that one morning with the two of you all excited talking about all the games you'd play with a Pimple Ball. I hope every time he looks at it he thinks of you.
Love, your wife, Lori M
July 6, 2014

Hi Jim, got your tombstone placed the other day. Hope you like it. Other stuff is cropping up, things I'd rather not deal with, so keep an eye on me that things don't fall apart.

I'm done with Cardiac Rehab! I did it! On to other things.
I saw a video with a yellow lab it it. A clip of silly things he did. No doubt you'd be rolling on the floor playing with this dog! Miss you!

You never told me that the Beach Boys did a song called PT Cruiser. That really shocked me yesterday.
Come to think of it....PT Cruiser? Your old handle, "Cruiser". Hmm. And I can't even ask you about these things.
And the theory behind "Pay it Forward", works. Miss you!
Love, your wife, Lori M
May 31, 2014
There is so much I want to talk to you about and you're not here. All I can do is cry when I want to talk to you. The loneliness is overwhelming. Still, I keep going. Keep being brave.

I used to see Jim every Monday and Friday when I work in the Lawrence Park Industrial District. We would always chat for a while and he would tell me about what he was doing for the weekend or how things were going with his DJ business. I have been in the audio business for most of my like so I was able to help him out sometimes with questions he had about his gear. I was so saddened to hear of his sudden passing back in January. He comes across my mind quite often and I am writing today because he is on my mind again. My sincerest condolences to Lori and David and all of his friends and co-workers. I have read all of the other condolences and can tell he had the same impact on everyone. Lori, I see you have posted quite often. Please know that there are many other people that have you and David in their prayers and that you are not alone in missing a truly wonderful person and a great friend. Be well and know that God is watching over you.
Sincerely,
Glenn Carty

I was at the deli counter today and one employee asked the other if Phil Collins was covering "You Can't Hurry Love." I knew it was a cover but at the time forgot who sang the original (The Supremes, I Googled it just now). All I could think of is if you were with me you'd be able to answer these guys as Mr. DJ knew his music. Been keeping busy today, cause it still hurts. I don't expect to ever stop feeling this way. I see people doing family things with their husbands online and hear of anniversaries and it crushes me. I'm happy for them, yet I just miss you.
Dreamt of you the other night. I know part of the dream had to do with that yellow "Cruiser" car that I never saw, only in pictures. So if your sending a message, it's not clear yet to me.
Love, your wife, Lori M
April 20, 2014
Happy Easter, Jim. I hope you are celebrating this day with our risen Lord. Words can't tell you how much we miss you. Keep us strong. We love you!

Jim, I recently found that show on Netflix "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia". Not sure why we never watched it. Indoor scenes are shot in CA, but the outdoor is surely Philly (Art Museum, sports complex, Kelly Drive, etc). They mention Wawa (your favorite!), they just showed Geno's (another fave of yours that David pointed out, they've talked about South Street, Delaware Ave...I wish I could share this with you. Oh, and one of the guys was the lead on That 80's Show, which to this day I felt deserved more than one season! So many things we should be experiencing together still. Please watch over us!
Love, your wife, Lori M
April 6, 2014
When I came by to visit you again the other day, I couldn't believe how muddy the ground is still! I enjoyed our "Chat" and I know you're looking out for me. I wish we could find David a job. Anxious, but picky. When we left, we saw a huge herd of deer and wondered if one of them were from the story you told me about this past autumn. Whisper into Mary and Jesus' ears for us,
Love, your wife, Lori M

Tomorrow just won't be the same without you! You would have been on vacation this week and always knew the right thing to do to make the day special for me.

Jim, wish I could have bought you your Irish Potatoes today. Had you on my mind again today. I think you'd have been proud of me.
Your wife, Lori M
March 16, 2014
Another moment when I went to call out to you to tell/ask you something, and again I'm reminded you're not here. Am I doing this because you're here with me in spirit? Am I doing it out of wishful thinking, or because I simply miss you? I don't think too much about tomorrow when the current day is hard enough to get through.
Your wife, Lori M
March 11, 2014
Jim, the other day at the store I saw those Oh Ryan's Irish Potatoes that you used to love. Without thinking, I reached out to grab a box for you. I would always buy you a box and take a picture of it and text it to you so you'd know what was waiting for you at home. All I can say is that it hurts. I have good days and bad days, but still more bad than good. Help me through this.
Love, your wife, Lori
March 3, 2014
Jim, I saw two things on TV today. One would have had you hysterically laughing, the other you would have found "interesting" and would have had you break into your "impressions". Both times I realized you aren't here to share these things with. You're not even a text or phone call away anymore. The pain is still fresh. Keep me going so I can get this stuff done that I have to do.
Your wife, Lori

February 21, 2014
I was watching a Vine video of a little boy, maybe 2 years old playing with his dad and had those deep belly laughs that used to make us laugh. Then I wanted to share it with you but I can't. Im trying to be strong but failing miserably. I can't even start Cardiac rehab until Mid March. Miss and love you!
Your wife, Lori
February 15, 2014
First you, then Aunt Helen and now Cousin Vince. I miss you so much! We were supposed to grow old together! We were supposed to rent that RV and see America after you retired! I pray for you several times a day when I feel lonely. Please continue to keep an eye on David and me. We need you. Ask Our Lord to hold us.
Your wife Lori
February 10, 2014
Just wanted you to know how much I miss you. I want to turn to you and ask what just happened on. TV show, but you're not there. I want to send you my daily "I love you" texts, but you're not here to read them. I want to send you silly Facebook picture, but I can't do that either. All I can hope is that you hear my prayers for you. Please keep pointing me in the right direction. David and I love you

Jim was our UPS carrier for some years. We use to talk each day about the Phillies, flea markets, dogs, kids, life,and his love for his son. He was a great guy and will be sorely missed. The Gallaghers, Broomall, Pa.

I am a manager at Wawa and was once a supervisor at UPS. I was had worked at the Broomall Wawa for over a year and had the pleasure to see Jim get his 12oz coffee and Entemann's powdered donuts on a daily basis. We always chatted briefly about UPS, Wawa, or whatever was going on. Guys like him stay with you no matter how may Wawas you work in and it is such a shame to hear of his sudden passing. On behalf myself and Wawa, Jim will be missed not only as a customer, but more importantly as a good man.

Jim delivered my many, many packages. My husband used to joke with him to stay away.. we have a shih Tzu and when we got her jim loved to talk and pet her. He told me all about your shih Tzu.

Jimmy was our UPS driver in Lawrence Park Industrial Park. He was always smiling and would go out of his way to help us out with deliveries. We all will miss Jimmy. He truly is a gem and we are so honored to have known him.
All his friends at Logowear House

Jim was our "UPS guy" in Lawrence Park Industrial Park for a few years - always had something nice to say and it was always a pleasure to see him.Over the last few years he would recognize my car around Broomall and always gave me a wave and a smile.Then I began to look at all UPS trucks and hope I could see Jim and give him a toot on the horn. Just a genuine good guy, and I am very sorry to hear of Jim's passing.May God bless your family and help you find comfort in such a difficult time and may Jim rest in peace.

My dear friend Lori. Words could never express the deep sadness I'm feeling for you and David. I pray and hope that the wonderful memories you have within your family comfort you in the days ahead. You are one of my best friends Lori and if there is any way I could absorb some of your pain, I would. I know you have strong Faith and Jim is in a good place with loved ones. Love, prayers and comfort to you and David, always.
