To my dearest Jim on our 35th Anniversary

[sdk]

To my dearest Jim,
Today would have been our 35th wedding anniversary. It has been 2 and a half years that you are gone. I miss you so much and still long to see you and touch you. It has taken a long time to accept that you are gone physically but I now know that you will be with me always in my heart and soul. I wasnt sure how I wanted to celebrate today. I thought I would go to the cementary but know you never felt that a loved one was really there. Then I thought about going to Roscoe (a place upstate New York) that we had thought about buying a house.
but I need to pick up our grandaughter at school. I now strongly believe that God planned her birth 6 weeks before your stroke so that we would have a piece of you. She looks just like you and has your personality and habits. I know you talk to her somehow and will always be part of her life. I am grateful for life we had together and love we had for each other and even though the sadness is still there the happiness of knowing you and loving you makes this journey a little easier. I loved you then, I love you now, I wwill ove you forever. Happy Anniversay my love,
Sheryl
