Sadness is on my mind today. My darling husband past away this past Friday, June 22. We were together 15 wonderful years. It wasn't easy finding a "free thinker", but I finally did, in Lincoln, Nebraska of all places. We spent a lot of time together this last 6 months as his illness continued to take over his body and health. He past away at home as he wanted. He was my best friend, husband and fantastic "papa" to my grandchildren. Life will be so empty without him next to me. Thank goodness I have my wonderful family to lean on. Thanks for letting me share.

My heart is aching, so thank you all for giving me a boost. The memorial service is Tuesday at 4 pm. Please think about Richard at that time.

Life is very tough. At least you were together, rather than having never met.

My condolences on your loss. I know how hard it can be to find folks who don't prescribe to the midwestern, old time religion norms. It's hard enough to find friends who stear clear of that stuff in Nebraska, let along someone you click well enough with to spend a long time with.
You'll probably need some time to yourself right now, but when the dust settles and the time feels right, get back out there again.

My condolences at the loss of your beloved husband, best friend and partner.
Your life is much richer having had him to love, be loved and enjoy. Time will heal your grief and he will always live in the wonderful memories you made together.
I wish you well in life's journey and success in finding what you are searching for here and in your life.

I want to be supportive but have no words that will make it better. I feel your loss as I may be going through the process myself.

Maybe related,but on three different occasions in two separate locations miles apart,I've heard my late wife's voice, waking me from a deep sleep by calling my name,not scary.Perhaps wishful thoughts? I dunno,she's been gone now 9 months,I've heard my name "Mike"......
