My Love

You were a once in a lifetime love that I will never find again . You were , You are, & always will be the love of my life. I will always remember the beautiful memories that we shared together throughout the past 16 years . You taught me so many things, you taught me how to use a computer, you taught me how to type, you taught me how to stand up for myself and not take crap from anybody because I deserved the best of nothing but the best . You taught me how a real man treats a woman. And that you set the bar so high. But I don’t wanna ever know any other kind of love. Our love was beyond imaginable . I will always cherish everything about you, I am a better person because of you . All of the memories that we shared together were amazing . I’ll always celebrate your birthday, and Christmas Eve will always be about you because you were my angel. I always told you that you were my angel sent from Heaven. And I truly believe that you were put on this earth to be my husband and I was put on this earth to be your wife and love you for the rest of your life and you loved me for the rest of yours. For that, I will always be grateful. My heart will always hurt, and I will always have the lump in my throat because it was not your time - we should still be together. You should still be here - we are celebrating your 56th birthday today. And oh, how we wish you were physically here. It still doesn’t seem real that it’s been 11 1/2 months since you went to heaven. I live each day, thinking about you, and still loving you with all of my heart. And I will continue until the day that I die. Love your wife Heather .
