Partying In Heaven

Born in nineteen forty four We met when I was sweet sixteen We found true love forevermore My precious love ~ my soulmate Spending our whole life together With precious son ~ our only one Then creeping like inclement weather The Big C came it knew your name You were so strong you were so brave You fought just like a warrior But in the end the evil stayed It drained you and it claimed you When on that day you went away December two thousand and eight My heart it almost broke in two Life alone ~ no life without you Born today St Patrick's Day You will be seventy seven And I am sure behind that door They’ll be partying in heaven I raise a glass of your favourite red Chateauneuf du Pape Thank you for your endless love My darling My soulmate My sweetest chap Written 17th March 2021 Happy Birthday to my dear husband Frank who left this world too soon...

My father-in-law passed on Saint Patrick's Day, and he never declined a pint nor party, so I suspect they are having a grand time! Aloha! Rico

Life is difficult. But we must do the best we can. Your husband had a great taste in wine. My daughter always sends me a Chateauf de pape on big feasts. But now we both must mourn our death, especially you and your son.
