She is my beloved wife, my best friend, my soulmate. We were blessed to have had 35 wonderful great loving years together.
She will always be deep in my heart and thoughts. I think of her all the time. So many great memories of us and her.
Her unconditional love, kindness and laughter filled our home. I know she is watching over me and we will be together again.
She is in heaven now with her Mom and Dad and family and friends. It is true love when you both thought you got the better end of the deal having one another, and we did!
Those of you that knew her know she was Kind, Giving and Funny. She lit up the room, especially when she smiled. She was beautiful inside and outside and a joy to be around.
She loved life and lived it to the fullest. One of a Kind! I truly miss her every moment.
I love you so much Mel and always will. I am your loving husband forever. We had the time of our lives!!
