I too, am "widowed for life" which will be 23 years the 26th of February 2015. My husband passed away in 1992, thus leaving me to raise our 8 year old daughter. <br /><br />The 17 year difference in our ages didn't seem to matter; his troops seemed to keep him young. Yes, there were many difficult times after he was gone, but I was the mother of a young child who's well-being came first and foremost. She has grown into a beautiful, successful young woman and her dad is never far from our hearts or our thoughts. We share wonderful memories of him. <br /><br />Do we miss him, yes. . . . . .his laughter, sharing yard work and household chores, short trips and "adventures" and his wonderful smile when I was having a bad day. He always said tomorrow would be a better day, and he was right. You'll have some pretty tough times, but remember, time will ease some of the pain and although nothing will ever be the same, the sun will gradually shine again and you're not alone.~~Frances Foster JohnsonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5680984228843410546.post-2815000438971075592015-01-19T17:22:26.363-05:002015-01-19T17:22:26.363-05:00Very touching!Very touching!Jeff Yargernoreply@blogger.com
