...I sit here in bed and I think of the wonderful things people had to say about my beloved wife and I smile for the time we shared, and I weep for the time we will never have.

Although I saw with my own eyes that she was in the coffin, I know that she was above us and all around us, surrounding us with her gentle spirit...giving us all the will to continue on...to honor and to cherish her memory. And I have to believe that same spirit was, in part, if not wholly, responsible for making it rain as we turned into the cemetery, and for making it stop as we approached the grave site---just another reminder of who was still in charge :)

In the days, weeks, months and years to come, we will feel her in the sweet breezes, we will hear her in a favorite melody, we will think of her in passing conversation, in an overheard phrase...and we will know that she will never truly leave us.

My life has been blessed as never before and I am truly thankful for my nine years - ups and downs- with such a courageous, sweet, warm, loving, intelligent woman of valor.

Rest in Peace my love, my friend, my soul mate, my cherished partner

...you've taken enough hits for a while, life throws you another
one. My ex-wife called me this morning to tell me that our
daughter, who some of you saw just this past Sunday, was hit by a
car while crossing a street in Houston (she went back there only
Wednesday afternoon, so not even a full 24 hrs later).

I don't have all the details as to who, how, where, why....what
I do know is that Melissa is in ICU with broken ribs, a laceration
on her skull, a concussion, broken neck and collarbone...
