Dearly Departed

I was physically born, July 1937 My meaningful life started June 1959, when I took Patricia Ann as my dearest wife. My meaningful life ended 1:25 a.m., October 10, 2023, with her passing. Patricia, is at another place, our spiritual place, where we will soon be together again. May the journey be swift as my time here isn’t enough, without her. Memories can’t satisfy my grief as her touch isn’t there for me. Together… Forever.

People who have been loved are very lucky. You have been blessed.

Thank you, Hilda, for your understanding comment. Sixty-four years together was too short. Our spirts, go forward "Together and Forever"

Thank you, "Silent One" for your comment. I pray I am the exception and pain will diminish or disappear completely as I get closer to our spiritual Union.
