Happy Birthday Lovey

Lovey was the name Barbara and I called each other almost from the day we got married. About the only time she ever used my given name was if I was in trouble.


Today would have been Barbara's 57th birthday.


I miss you Lovey.

Many people live their whole lives without having found such love and happiness. Congratulations on having found each other and the memories you created. Will also raise a toast in her honor tonight.

She had such a wide open, happy, loving face. I know you miss her so much. You two were truly blessed to have had each other and your son for 30+ years. Rest Well, dear lady
