You meant so much to all of us
You were special and that’s no lie
You brightened up the darkest day
And the cloudiest sky
Your smile alone warmed hearts
Your laugh was like music to hear
I would give absolutely anything
To have you well and standing near
Not a second passes
When you’re not on our minds
The hurt will ease in time
Many tear we have seen and cried
They have all poured out like rain
I know that you are at peace now
And no longer in any pain
To the man I fell in love with, my companion, my best friend, my lover, my true love, my everything, my one and only but most of all my HUSBAND. You taught me what true love was and how to be a fighter. You were an amazing father to your daughter Jordyn that taught her so much and I promise you I will tell her who the man you were and still are in my heart. How to also believe in ourselves and to never give up and to always believe you can do things. I will cherish our nights under the stars on our balcony, our amazing days camping, making bonfires, going to the beach, our love for sports especially Tennis, running, volleyball, catch in the water at the beach and living each day free as can be. Our strolls on the boardwalk. Until we meet again my luv you will always stay close to me in my heart and never be forgotten. Love you to the moon and back. Xoxoxo
