Cathie

Cathie has helped me be the man I was always meant to be Changing my life for evermore Setting my spirit free Can't begin to explain to you How much I love this girl To my deepest depths and deeper My friend, my wife, my pearl We met when she was six years old Her sister was the prize But life can sure twist things around We know not what secrets lie Brother in law and sister in law When Linda was my wife Tragedy struck, Linda was gone She helped me through the strife We married two years later And haven't looked back since We'll be together till the very end Of this I am convinced Cathie is my dear, dear wife Without her I'd be lost Life has many twists and turns Fate caused our paths to cross © Jack Ellison 2012

Wow, such a beautiful dedication to your wife Cathie. What would we do without our soulmate, our companion, our sweetheart? Beautifully penned. Always, Laura

A GREAT dedication to Cathie! You ought to make a copy of this one on some real nicely bordered paper... and put it on the wall... Then if she ever gets mad at you... You can just accidently walk slowly past the picture (giving it a glance), and she'll probably forgive you anything... I would... your friend, Carol
