I treasure every moment and every memory that I had you beside me on this earth; and I have treasured every tear I have cried for the past 29 years because I know that we only hurt as much as we have loved.....love that is deep and forever. I would never give up one single moment of loving you.
I can only speak for my own heart when I come here to talk to you......but never doubt how much you are loved and missed by all of your family, your wife and children, and the many friends that knew you in this life. We are all thinking of you today.
I love and miss you forever and always
