My sweet Jim, the love of my life and husband of 53 years, passed away suddenly on February 18th. He died of heart failure in his sleep. There was no suffering. He was 78 years old. All 6 of our children gathered and we had several days together. The outpouring of love and support has been so wonderful. I really had no idea how many lives he had touched until the funeral. There were at least 200 people in attendance. Oh how I miss him. I know he is watching over me and when I am finished here on this earth, I will be with him eternally. He was the best man, the best husband, the best friend. I love him so. As one person said, "If Jim didn't go to heaven, there is no heaven." He will be greatly missed by many.
Thank you for you consideration of all of us, with this update. My heart aches for you, know that you too are so cared about by many. Your love of family shows in all you do. May you continue to be surrounded by love.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this, Melynda@Scratch Made Food! It means a lot to me. Thank you. Thank you.
DeleteOh I am so sorry for your loss! I have only been married 42 years but I just can't imagine how hard. Praying the dear Lord will comfort you in the days ahead.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words. I am grateful.
DeleteI didn't get to finish. Thank you so much for the prayers.
DeleteVery sorry to hear, thank you for the post. I wish you peace and healing as you adjust to life without him. My husband of 41 years passed two years ago and adjusting to the new life takes years apparently. Now at year two and I am sort of feeling like I can see normal in the future. Not the future I would have chosen but still a future. Hilogene in Az.
