In the beginning there was LOVE!

A dream of beloved spouse dying…

Blessed are those who mourn …
The thing about losing Pat after 48 years of marriage is that every feeling, thought and moment has been intertwined for so long that I no longer remember who I was before marrying her. I know I was a lonely … Continue reading
