Dave, although the pain of missing you becomes unbearable at times, I try so very hard to carry on with your plan (our plan).
You are no longer physically at my side, you do live within my heart.
I have so many beautiful memories of you that give me the strength to face my remaining days without your loving arms around me.
Rest in peace my wonderful brave Husband. God bless you xx.
xx Always loving you Diane xx

My dearest Dave, Today should have been a great celebration “your 70th Birthday” and instead of kissing you I’ve spent every breath and heartbeat wishing you were still here beside me. There are no words to really describe how much I love and miss you “my wondeful Husband who truly understood me”.
xx Always Loving You Diane xx
