June 27, 2012 was the day I lost my husband...the day my life changed forever. We had a fairy tale romance, boyfriend, girlfriend in junior high school, then found each other 40 years later and found the love of a life time. He was living in Hawaii, but moved to Ohio to be with me. "I want to spend what remaining time we have on this earth with the one I love. The one who loves me back. I want us to be together to share our lives now, forever and beyong this life," We were together almost 3 years, and married almost 2 years, but we loved more in that short time we had than most people love in an entire lifetime. We did everything together, we spent every second we could just enjoying each other. Traveled back to Hawaii to share the beauty of that paradise, traveled to New York at Christmas, love going to baseball games together, traveling around taking pictures of the beauty of life. He captured our life in photographs to keep for all time. Our dreams for tomorrow are gone now, but the memories I have of our time together are just ours, just mine to keep in my heart. He was so loved my his daughtes, Traci and Robin and his sister Brenda, they shared a very close relationship throughout their life together. Now his loved ones, have become so much a part of my life.I know he is so happy to see how we are helping each other through this difficult time, and how in the process we are becoming closer and love one another so very much. Good things have come out of this terrible loss. I don't know how I will continue on without him by my side, but he always be with me in my heart and memories of the wonderful life we shared. He waits for me in the beyond, we promised each other we would..and there I'll be with him for eternity. I love you Rob, now forever and beyond.
