The Love of My Life

The love of my life died on New Years Day
Nineteen ninety-nine, my world was betrayed
Part of me died with her
To this day I still miss her
Will love that sweet lady till I too pass away

Very deep and sad write, Kenny. They live on in our hearts. You will see her again. Just wanted to let you know I won't be around much for the next month or so. Have some things to take care of. Don't forget me. Hugs

You forgot something... as most people do... She's waiting in heaven... and watching lovingly at you... You are not alone... I'm sure she's there for you... You just may not see her... as she comforts you... Awww... You got Dragon sniffling... he's crying for you... Isn't he cute!

Don't know how I made it through that sad time! Actually I do... I had my dear Cathie to help! As you probably know, she was Cathie's sister! Thanks dear Carol... xxx
