My Memories:

This page my friends, is dedicated to the greatest man of my life!...


MY HUSBAND, MY FRIEND, MY SOULMATE, MY HEART!






The day when my world fell apart, not only for me but for every person that had ever come in contact with him, had ever had the pleasure to know this man. Those of us who loved and admired him suffered a tragic loss on the 19th day of December. The year matters not, it still feels like yesterday.... 

I lost part of myself that day and the pain still lingers deep within my soul.
A torrent has been unleased and I feel as if it is December 19 all over again. I feel the sense of shock, the sense of loss, the sense of helplessness.
Life teaches many lessons, some easier than others to endure, but one lesson is to enjoy your loved ones while they are here, close to you.

Amid fear that my husband would soon be among the angels,I began to realize that he would really be GONE. I was in emotial shock, this could not be happening! I say this because, years prior, God had sent an Angel from Heaven to my home and upon the Angels departure, he had taken with him, my 15 month old son. Why, I ask, didnt't God take me?? My thoughts were "How could I live?" or want to, with both my son and my husband being in heaven. I wanted to be with them also, thought it impossible to live without them!

My husband was very kind, generous, intelligent, and good-hearted.....he always knew what to do when life threw us lemons. I could go on forever,but this poem I have had for years and would like to share with you. This is something he would say to me ...............










Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep,

I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,

I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning's husk,
I am the swift uplifting rush,
of quiet birds in circled flight,

I am the softest star,
that shines at night,

Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.
